The number of cis-regulated tags per gene.
The percentages of cis-regulated tags mapping into the same gene are indicated (781 genes overall). For nearly half of the genes (48%) only one tag shows an eQTL effect. If multiple tags map within the same gene, only one eQTL tag should pass the FDR<0.05 significance threshold while the other tag could be less significant. For these eQTLs the allelic direction is shown: same allelic direction (multiple tags within the same gene are cis-regulated by a SNP in the same direction), significantly opposite allelic direction (multiple tags within the same gene are cis-regulated by a SNP but with opposite directions and the difference between the correlation coefficients is significant), or opposite allelic direction but not significant (if the difference between correlation coefficients is not significant).
