Human expression QTLs are enriched in signals of environmental adaptation.

Genome biology and evolution - 1 Jan 2013

Ye Kaixiong, Lu Jian, Raj Srilakshmi Madhura, Gu Zhenglong

Abstract excerpt

Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) have been found to be enriched in trait-associated single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). However, whether eQTLs are adaptive to different environmental factors and its relative evolutionary significance compared with nonsynonymous SNPs (NS SNPs) are st...
