Quantitative trait transcripts analysis of cis eQTLs with physiological traits in the rat. Expression profiles of the 1,444 cis eQTLs (PGW = 0.05) were correlated with values of (a) indexed LVM, (b) DBP and (c) SBP measured in the BXH/HXB RI strain panel. For each cis eQTL across the rat genome, the absolute Pearson correlation coefficient with the physiological traits is plotted against the location of the probe set (Mb). Vertical lines, physical position of the end of each rat chromosome. The number of each chromosome is given on the upper y axis. The horizontal lines indicate empirical significance levels P = 0.05, P = 0.01 and P = 0.001 of the correlations (see Methods).
