  1. a cis-eQTL were called if the QTL peak lies within 1 Mb of the affected gene, or if the affected gene lies within the 1.5 LOD-drop confidence interval
  2. bThe differences between the total and the summation of the individual cis- and trans-eQTL is due to genes with both a cis- and trans-eQTL
