Differential inheritance of gene expression phenotypes in cis versus in trans. Cis-regulation affects expression additively (males: slope = 1.97, ρ = 0.958; females: slope = 2.46, ρ = 0.817, P < 0.0001 in both sexes), while trans-regulation is associated with more dominant D. mauritiana alleles (males: slope = 1.26, ρ = 0.900; females: slope = 1.51, ρ = 0.809, P < 0.0001 in both sexes).
