Gene expression in behaviourally relevant neurons. We identified significant expression differences in neurons active during parental care in the POA and Mp of tadpole transporting versus non-transporting D. tinctorius males. Those transcripts with significant expression enrichment or expression depletion in tadpole transporting males when compared with control males are highlighted in blue, and the seven transcripts overlapping between brain regions are labelled. The same candidate transcripts are plotted in the same order along the x-axis for both brain regions. We found some unique and some shared transcripts differentially expressed across brain regions (e.g. distribution of blue dots between plots). (Online version in colour.)
