FDR in LV, Fat, Kidney, and Adrenal Tissues

<div><p>(A) For each major eQTL detected in LV, fat, kidney, and adrenal tissue, the expected FDR was calculated and plotted against different <i>p</i>-value thresholds in the range 10⁻⁶–0.05. Insert: FDR for various <i>p</i>-values in the range 10⁻⁶–10⁻³.</p><p>(B) Vase box-plots for the FDRs of the <i>cis-</i> and <i>trans</i>-acting eQTLs detected at <i>p</i> = 0.05 in LV, fat, kidney, and adrenal tissue. Vase box-plots are box-plots where the width of the box at each point is proportional to the density of the data there. The thick line indicates the median FDR for each distribution.</p>
