  1. Correlation between two individuals per strain was calculated using Pearson's correlation coefficient. Significance levels (p-values) between strains were calculated with MA-ANOVA, and within strains using the hierarchical t-test. Differential gene expression was determined by selecting genes with p-values lower than a specified threshold. Thresholds were selected using three different strategies; naive, Bonferroni corrected, and False Discovery Rate (10%), and resulted in different numbers of significantly differentially expressed genes.
