    <p>Box-and-whiskers plots show median and IQR (‘<b>+’</b> within the box denotes mean value) for the OMD (white boxes), OFD (hatched boxes) and ONoPD (grey boxes) in males (left) and females (right); box-and whiskers for rest of cohort (RoC, i.e. all those without diabetes excluded from the F<sub>1</sub>-offspring groups, [black boxes] for males and females) are also shown for comparison. Graphs are shown for Waist (A), HDL-cholesterol (B), Glucose (C), Systolic-blood pressure (D), Diastolic-blood pressure (E), BMI (F) and Percent body-fat (G). Groups were compared by Kruskal-Wallis, with level of significance between the groups indicated (* P<0.05, **P<0.01, *** P<0.001, **** P<0.0001).</p

    <p>X-axis: names of phenotype; Y-axis: proportion of phenotypic/genetic variance explained by the different components. a) Proportion of phenotypic variance explained by genetics and environment for each trait. b) Proportion of phenotypic variance explained by different components kept in the selected model for each trait. c) Proportion of genetic variance explained by SNP-associated and pedigree-associated genetic effects.</p

    Boxplots for estimates of each component obtained from models ‘G’, ‘K’, ‘F’, ‘S’, ‘C’, ‘GK’, ‘GKC’, ‘GKSC’ and ‘GKFSC’.

    <p>X-axis: the contributors to the simulated phenotype and the model used (matched model); Y-axis: proportion of total phenotypic variance captured by each design matrix. Yellow lines: simulated value for each component. Parameter settings: = 0.3, = 0.2, = 0.1, = 0.1 and = 0.05. For example, the 2<sup>nd</sup> boxplot of the 3<sup>rd</sup> graph means that, the simulated phenotypes are contributed by 30%, 20%, 10% and 40% of SNP-associated, pedigree-associated, couple environmental and residual effects respectively; we conducted variance component analyses for all replicates using the matched model ‘<b>GKC</b>’ and the estimates of range from about 8% to 12% with a mean of 10%, as expected.</p

    <p>The diagram shows the relationship between the tested genetic/environmental effect and the individuals in an example pedigree. Each colour represents a specific effect and individuals affected by that effect are circled with that colour. People in grey or black are the people not in or in the data. Examples of how the relationship matrices for those effects look are also given.</p
