Genomic and Functional Studies of Drosophila Sex Hierarchy Regulated Gene Expression in Adult Head and Nervous System Tissues
Figure 3
The 40 genes listed here showed significant differential expression in wild-type female versus male, female versus tra pseudomale, female versus dsxD pseudomale, female versus dsx null XX, and male versus dsx null XY in 0–24-h adult heads. Columns contain FC ratio values from the microarray data: F/M, female over male; F/tra, female over tra; F/dsxD, female over dsxD; F/dsx, female over dsx null XX; M/dsx, male over dsx null XY. The white region contains genes (34) that showed activation or repression by both DSXF and DSXM in the same direction, in both sexes. The gray region contains genes (six) that showed DSXF and DSXM acting in opposite directions. (I.) Activation by both DSXF and DSXM with higher level of activation by DSXF. (II.) Repression by both DSXF and DSXM with higher level of repression by DSXF. (III.) Repression by both DSXF and DSXM with higher level of repression by DSXM. (IV.) Activation by DSXF and repression by DSXM. (V.) Repression by DSXF and activation by DSXM. The symbols (+/−) in the first column are qualitative representations of activation (+) or repression (−), based on the microarray data.
