Selection probability of each CpG for the prediction of GA in cord-blood DNAm samples of newborns in MoBa (n = 2138). Each point represents a single CpG (n = 769,139). The x-axis displays the CpGs according to their genomic coordinate, while the y-axis represents the selection probability calculated from the stability selection analysis. The solid horizontal line denotes a selection probability of 0.5, where a given CpG has an equal probability of being selected or excluded. The dashed black line denotes the selection probability threshold of 0.73. Asterisks signify CpGs that were selected in previously published GA clocks (specifically, the Haftorn clock [9], the Bohlin clock [7], or the Knight clock [8]). Orange signifies a CpG with a selection probability above the threshold of 0.73, and blue signifies a CpG from a previously published clock with a selection probability below that threshold
