Significance of the overlap, based on the Fisher’s exact test, between pleiotropic QTL for a range of traits in cattle for dairy (a) and beef (b) and cis splicing quantitative trait loci (sQTLs), exon expression QTL (eeQTLs) and gene expression QTL (geQTLs) in all tissues, where the colour represents the significance of the overlap. Where blood refers to white blood cells and milk refers to milk cells. Significance of the overlap was based on the Fisher’s exact test. Only chromosomes containing overlapping SNPs are shown. c An example of MGST1 showing the relationship between QTL effects on exon expression in milk cells and their effects on dairy cattle milk fat yield
