Relation of the expression levels acquired by qPCR (horizontal axis) and RNA-seq (vertical axis), for two C. trachomatis strains: L2b/CS19/08 (A) and E/CS1025/11 (B). Each dot represents the relation of the expression values obtained by the two methods, for the same transcript, of that particular strain. For each strain is shown that relation regarding three different sets of transcripts: 1) All transcripts quantified for each strain; 2) transcripts with a calculated half-life time ≤ 30 min; and 3) transcripts with a calculated half-life time ≤ 10 min. Both the linear correlation coefficient (R²) and the Pearson correlation coefficient (P) are shown in each graph, and indicating strong correlation.
