From: Chromosomal assignment of quantitative trait loci influencing baseline circulating total cholesterol level in male laboratory mice: report of a consomic strain survey and comparison with published results

Figure 3

Adjusted baseline circulating total cholesterol level (μmol/L). Results for twenty CSSs (n = 5 or 6/consomic strain; CSS-5, CSS-6, CSS-11, CSS-13 en CSS-X: n = 5; other consomics: n = 6), the C57BL/6J host strain (n = 25) and the A/J donor strain (n = 29). Results are presented as means ± SD. Black bar = C57BL/6J, white bar = A/J, and grey bars = consomic strains. The grey bars are positioned in order of elevating adjusted mean values. Significant (P < 0.004) and suggestive (0.004 ≤ P < 0.05) evidence for a QTL is indicated by ** and *, respectively. # indicates that the donor strain is significantly (P < 0.004) different from the host strain.
