From: Pan-cancer analysis reveals technical artifacts in TCGA germline variant calls
Overview of technical covariates for pan-cancer samples. For each covariate and cancer type, color represents the fraction of total samples. Fraction of total samples sums to 1 for each covariate and cancer type. Red indicates higher heterogeneity. Year first published included for context.
