Workflow Used to Detect Rhythmic, Differentially Rhythmic, and Differentially Expressed Genes in Circadian Transcriptome Data from Livers of Wild-type and Arntl-/- Mice under Night-restricted Feeding (GSE73552).

Analysis Step Genes Tested Method Variables in Linear Model
1. Rhythmicity All RAIN -
2. Diff. rhythmicity Rhythmic LimoRhyde [1,hi,cosθi,sinθi,hicosθi,hisinθi]
3. Diff. expression Non-diff. rhythmic LimoRhyde [1,hi,cosθi,sinθi]

In the vectors of variables, hi and θi correspond to genotype (encoded as an indicator variable) and zeitgeber time (in radians) for sample i, respectively. Bold font indicates the variables whose corresponding coefficients were of interest at each step. Arrows indicate that rhythmic genes were tested for differential rhythmicity, and non-differentially rhythmic genes were tested for differential expression.
