Table 3. Distribution of induced and repressed genes among lineage specificity cohorts and chromosomal locations.

Number of genes Differentially expressed UP' (observed) DOWN' (observed) UP' (expected) DOWN' (expected) χ2 p
Aspergillus core 5095 965 414 551 482.5 482.5 19.45 <0.0001
Affc-core 6907 1468 791 677 734 734 8.853 0.0029

Chi-square analysis (with one degree of freedom) was used to test the distribution of induced and repressed genes with respect to lineage specificity and sub-genomic locations, based upon the null hypothesis that equal numbers of induced and repressed genes occur in each cohort. Asterisked gene populations are listed in Supplementary Table S5.
