Analysis of regulatory patterns

(A) Relationship between sample size and the # of detected eQTLs. The numbers on the line represent π₁ between two populations.

(B) Effect sizes for common (MAF > 1%) sentinel cis-eQTLs across EAS and AA compared to EUR populations.

(C) Comparison of MAF between population-shared and non-EUR specific eSNPs. The mean MAF has been labeled under the x axis. "NS" stands for not significant, and "^∗∗∗" indicates a p value < 0.01.

(D) Down-sampling results to estimate π₁ between non-European and European eQTLs.

(E) Example of opposite effect eQTL TAS2R31-chr12:11282501A>G. The x axis represented the genotype. The y axis represented the normalized expression of TAS2R31.
