Table 1.
Numbers of genes with B73 and Mo17 positively acting cis regulatory alleles using B73 and Mo17 reference genomes revealed read mapping preferences for reference alleles
| B73 referencea | Mo17 referenceb | |
|---|---|---|
| Total cis-eQTLc | 9306 | 7985 |
| B73 positive cis-eQTL | 6341 (68.1%) | 2816 (35.3%) |
| Mo17 positive cis-eQTL | 2965 (31.9%) | 5169 (64.7%) |
RNA-seq were mapped to the B73a or Mo17b reference using STAR with the default criteria as given in Supplemental Information.
c The numbers of genes with cis-eQTL were recorded excluding genes with both cis and trans eQTL
