Overview of associations identified by eGWAS. a: The distribution of additive effects of local-acting (red bars) or distant-acting (blue bars) eQTL-SNPs. eQTL-SNP effects are expressed as the ratio between the effect of the eQTL-SNP on probe expression and the standard deviation of variation in probe expression. b: Genomic locations of expressed probes versus genomic positions of associated eQTL-SNPs. Each significant association is represented by a dot; the color of dots indicates the significance (q-value) of the association (green: 1x10−1 < q < 1x10−10, dark red: 1x10−10 < q < 1x10−20, blue: 1x10−20 < q < 1x10−30, black: 1x10−30 < q < 1x10−40). Dots on the diagonal represent local associations; off-diagonal dots correspond to distant associations
