Table 1 Expression polymorphism within and between populations

Comparison	Number of polymorphic genes	Mean differences per pairwise comparison	Mean pairwise differences per gene (in %)
Among all strains	1536	49.8	0.74
Within Europe	305	22.6	0.33
Within Africa	547	37.5	0.57
Between populations	1364	65.7	0.99

Significant differences in expression between strains were determined using a P-value cut-off of 0.001 (FDR = 30%).
