  1. 1Probes presented in this table were selected based on their known roles in vertebrate immune responses. Some genes without a BLASTx hit (e.g. Unknowns) were added because they presented a pIC-induced fold-change higher than 5, and therefore, could represent novel immune-relevant genes. For a complete list of microarray-identified informative probes please refer to Additional file1: Tables S2-S5 and S7-S8.
  2. 2Fold-change in probe expression is also shown for pIC @ 16°C vs. pIC @ 10°C when significant differential expression was found in the PBS vs. pIC comparisons.
  3. 3Informative genes were re-annotated using the contig or EST from which the probe printed in the array was designed by comparing the referred sequence to the NCBI’s nr database using the BLASTx algorithm as implemented by Blast2GO[67]. The best BLASTx hit (E-value cutoff of 10-5) with an informative name (i.e. not predicted, probable or unnamed protein) is presented in this table. Synonyms were obtained from SWISS-PROT, GENE CARDS and other BLASTx hits as long as they had E-value < 10-5, or from the literature (aBorza et al.[58]).
  4. 4Fold-changes are only reported when probes were differently expressed (FDR = 1%) in a given comparison (e.g. pIC@10°C vs. pIC@16°C) and are shown as outputted by siggenes; otherwise a dash (−) is presented in place of the fold-change. Fold-change values preceded by a minus (“-“) sign represent overall fold down-regulation for a particular comparison. For standard deviation, p- and d-values, please refer to Additional file1: Tables S2-S5 and S7-S8.
