Salt-specific Heritable Gene Enrichment. Plots A-D represent chromosomes 1, 4, 6, and 8 respectively. The black lines at the bottom of each plot represent the relative chromosome length, with the position and relative size of pericentromeric regions indicated by overlapping red boxes. Using a sliding window size of 1.5 Mb at 100 Kb intervals, chromosomes were tested for enrichment of genes with salt-specific heritability using all genes with heritable expression (salt-specific, optimal-specific, and general) as the null distribution. P-values were adjusted for multiple-testing using a permutation based approach. Using a critical value of 0.001, indicated by the dashed red line, significant windows enriched for salt-specific heritability were identified on chromosomes 1, 4, 6, and 8
