Weak Positive  Correlation between RSS Score and TRGV Gene Expression in Thymic TCR Gamma Repertoire. RIC scores were calculated using RSSsite and plotted against the proportion of the repertoire rearrangements attributable to each TRGV gene in the thymus of ISA Brown chickens. As there is currently no chicken RSS consensus, mouse RSS was used as a reference. These plots reveal a weak positive correlation but this only accounts for a minority of the variation we observe in the data. RIC scores are expressed as natural logs where 0 would be a perfect RSS and − 1000 would be the worst. P and R2 values were generated using regression analysis (*** p value < 0.001, ** p value < 0.01, * p value < 0.05)
