Expression mean (“Expression”) and range (“Range”), correlation with behavioral phenotype (“Phen correlate”) and the presence of cis-regulation (“cis present”) for the top 4 candidate genes in the amygdala, hypothalamus, pituitary, hippocampus, ventral tegmental area (VTA), and adrenal gland. The phenotype examined was 12390, which is ACQ during the last 5 min (5–10 min). For the phenotype correlations the P value is shown. 1Shown are all significant P values (< 0.05) as well as those that have a trend toward significance (0.05- 0.1). All correlations that did not reach significance are denoted with NS. 2For the expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analyses we list eQTL LRSs that are 14 or above; eQTL LRSs that are <14 are denoted by none. Trans-eQTLs list the location, while the cis-eQTLs is located within 5 Mb of the gene itself.
