  1. Numbers in parentheses are the numbers of genes specifically expressed in that tissue (i.e. significantly higher in that tissue than in all other tissues; see Figure 4).
  2. *One CSP (CbirCsp2) is specifically expressed in legs and therefore contributes to the count in parentheses, but is expressed at less than 50 FPKM in legs and so does not contribute to the count of genes expressed in legs.
