Fig 3. Co-expression characteristics of eGenes and eSNPs.

Fig 3

(A) Gene expression variance distribution for all genes in the SwAsp data (before removal of hidden confounders) and the exAtlas data. (B) Distribution of co-expression connectivity for eGenes and non-eGenes. (C) Distributions of the proportion of total variance explained and heritability for eGenes and non-eGenes divided into core and non-core genes. (D) Genes having distantly, locally, or both distantly and locally acting eSNPs located within 2 kbp (or inside) the gene divided into core and non-core genes. (E) Genomic context of distantly, locally, or both distantly and locally acting eSNPs located within 2 kbp of an eGene divided into core and non-core eGenes. The eSNP counts are normalised for total feature length.
