Fig. 5. Comparison in expression between genes located on the sex and autosomal chromosomes.

Fig. 5

Log2(counts +1) per gene are displayed for all genes on the X chromosome or Y contigs compared to all genes located on an autosome (2 R, 2 L, 3 R or 3 L) for each cell cluster. Hub cells (HC), Germline stem cells (GSC), Primary spermatogonia (P-Spg), Late Spermatogonia/Primary spermatocytes (L-Spg/P-Spc), Spermatocytes (Spc), Late spermatocytes/Early spermatids (L-Spc/E-Spt), Late spermatids (L-Spt) and Mature spermatozoa (Spz). Wilcoxon tests were used to determine a significant difference between autosomal and X-linked or Y-linked gene counts (p.adj <0.0001 ***, p.adj <0.001 **, p.adj <0.05 *). Adjusted p-values were calculated using the Bonferroni correction for multiple testing. The lower and upper quartiles are defined by the box with the median represented within. Whiskers show the maximum and minimum range of the data with any outliers beyond this displayed as circles.
