  1. Shown are results from standard least square linear models relating measures of gene expression from a previous experiment - average expression levels (A), sex-biased gene expression, alternate mating morph-biased gene expression, and expression detected across up to four different tissue types - to estimates of genetic variation (see Table 5).
