The linear model that includes the toxicity degree (x2) and the number of TFs (x3) is built for each of the four gene expression datasets, respectively. R2 is the variation explained by each independent factor and the model, respectively. β is the linear coefficient in the linear model, and the p-value is related to the null hypothesis that β ≠ 0 versus β = 0.
