Table 1 Overview of identified eQTL genes (FDR <0.05) that were significant in different subsets of the data
Dataset | Number of European samples | Number of African samples | Number of Asian samples | Number of unique eQTL genes | Number of eQTLs replicated in Geuvadis LCLs, based on DNA derived genotypes | Replication | Percentage replicated with identical allelic direction |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Geuvadis LCLs, RNA-seq derived genotypes | 371 | 88 | 0 | 8,765 | 8,301 | 95% | 99.95% |
Non-Geuvadis LCLs, RNA-seq derived genotypes | 29 | 26 | 0 | 80 | 74 | 93% | 100% |
Non-Geuvadis hematological samples (including LCLs), RNA-seq derived genotypes | 129 | 81 | 0 | 982 | 803 | 82% | 98.51% |
All non-Geuvadis samples, RNA-seq derived genotypes | 577 | 109 | 117 | 3,291 | 2,345 | 71% | 98.34% |
All samples, RNA-seq derived genotypes | 948 | 197 | 117 | 8,034 | 6,728 | 84% | 99.87% |
