Fig. 2. Methylation-adjusted eQTLs as compared to PC-adjusted eQTLs.
A) The Venn-Diagram showing the number of eQTLs that are significant with methylation-adjustment, significant with PC-adjustment, and significant in both analyses.
B) Comparison of the p-values of the 308 eQTLs that became significant with methylation-adjustment (black), 11,485 that were significant with PC-adjustment and decreased in significance with methylation-adjustment (red), and 50 that were significant with PC-adjustment and increased in significance with methylation-adjustment (gold).
