Fig 1. Mean fold change in sample strains vs. reference for strains containing chimeras or whole gene duplicates (red) and unmutated sample strains for the same regions (grey) in A) ovaries B) female carcass C) testes D) male carcass.
Chimeric genes are more likely to result in high mean fold change than unmutated counterparts in all tissues. Whole gene duplicates create multifold expression changes more rarely.
