Tissue specificity of NMD-QTLs. a The similarity of NMD-QTL signatures between tissue pairs. The similarity score s* reflects the enrichment of shared NMD-QTLs among different tissues. The detected NMD-QTLs from brain tissues are very distinctive from other tissue. b Tissue interaction map. No edge is drawn if the similarity score s* between the two tissues < 10. Black edges: 10 ≤ s* < 20; orange edges: 20 ≤ s* < 30; and red edges: 30 ≤ s*. c The number of tissues in which an NMD-QTL variant is detected. Brain tissues are combined as one tissue
