Genome-wide distribution of associations identified by eGWAS (A-D), and ASE-SNPs or -genes (E-F). a: Per-chromosome percentage of eQTL-SNPs detected by eGWAS (red) in the larger SNP set. b: Relative proportions of SNPs that were detected as local-acting (red), distant-acting (blue) or both local- and distant-acting (purple) eQTL-SNPs by eGWAS. c: Per-chromosome percentage of genes whose transcription levels were linked to eQTL-SNPs. This percentage was calculated from the whole set of genes detected as expressed in blood. d: Percentages of genes associated with local-acting (red), distant-acting (blue) or both local- and distant-acting (purple) eQTL-SNPs. e: Per-chromosome percentage of ASE-SNPs of the whole set of 80,939 heterozygous SNPs in the group of 38 pigs included in the ASE analysis. f: Per-chromosome percentage of genes harboring at least one ASE-SNP in the set of genes with heterozygous SNPs in the group of 38 pigs
