  1. The expression of known or implicated sex genes in the female and male gonads, at E4.5 and E6. Expression is measured in FPKM (fragments per kilobase of exon per million fragments mapped). P-values (FDR) indicate whether the difference between females and males is significant, and Fem:Male fold-change (FC) is the difference between females sample expression and male samples expression. Genes are ranked in terms of their FC at E6. Those in bold are significantly different (P-value (FDR) <0.001) between sexes at E6
