* The genes that are actively expressed only in a certain tissue were selected as described in the legend for Fig. 2A. ** The phenotype which is observed when a gene is disrupted. Listed are the most frequently observed phenotypes (ranked in top 3) with the disruption of the genes uniquely expressed in each tissue. *** The probability that the number of the genes associated with the phenotype are not different between the corresponding and all genes. **** The phenotype that is associated with the corresponding tissue is marked as ○, but not associated is ×.
