The first row shows the number of eGenes that are identified in AA (first column), the total number of genes analyzed in AA (second column), the percentage of genes that are eGenes in AA (third column), the number of eGenes that are identified in EA (fourth column), the total number of genes analyzed in EA (fifth column), the percentage of genes that are eGenes in EA (sixth column), the number of common eGenes identified in both AA and EA (seventh column), the proportion of eGenes identified in AA that are also identified in EA (eighth column) and the proportion of eGenes identified in EA that are also identified in AA (ninth column), at FDR ≤0.05.
