Extended Data Fig. 3

a, Plot showing the increase in dSNV number with paternal age at birth, as described previously1,5. Dashed line shows a regression curve demonstrating this dependence (n = 14 trios, adjusted R2 = 0.526, P = 0.0020). b, Plot showing the increase in dSNV number with paternal age at birth for paternal variants only. As expected, this correlation was stronger than for non-phased variants (n = 13 trios, adjusted R2 = 0.736, P = 0.000107). c-d, Plots showing correlation for paternal age and the number of mosaic variants or the mean AF in sperm. Paternal age/the number of mosaic variants (c; n = 14 trios, adjusted R2 = -0.048, P = 0.536) and paternal age/mean AF in sperm (d; n = 14 trios, adjusted R2 = -0.047, P = 0.463) did not show any significant correlation. Adjusted R2, coefficient of determination, and F-statistic nominal P-values are derived from a linear regression model through ordinary least squares. All graphs show individual data points, a regression line, and the 95% CI.
