Effect of RNA depletion on transcriptome expression levels (mean and standard deviation within expression categories). Expression categories are classified in quartiles according to the transcription level based on average FPKM values across samples from challenged and non-challenged udder quarters. Sample treatment: no RNA depletion (0), RNA depletion variant A (A) or RNA depletion variant B (B). Variants A and B differ in antisense oligonucleotide input for RNA depletion (see Materials and Methods)
