Enrichment of QTL and ASE variants for DCM GWAs. Cumulative density function (CDF) plots for DCM GWA P values for LD blocks that have sQTL (red) and eQTL (yellow) compared to the background set of all tested LD blocks using GWA data from a German DCM population (a) and a European DCM population (b). Similarly, CDF plots of DCM GWA P values for LD blocks with ASE variants (red) are compared to the background set of all LD blocks with coding SNPs tested for ASE (grey) for a German DCM population (c) and a European DCM population (d)
