The Qrr1 segment has been reported to have paralogues on mouse Chrs 1 (proximal region), 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, and 17 [117],[118]. We examined if the trans-QTLs in Qrr1 are of genes located in these paralogous regions. However, genes located in the paralogous regions are not overrepresented among the trans-QTL.
