Figure 7.

Relative RPKM expression of eight DGRP crosses for selected genes. The genes were associated with functionally enriched biological process GO terms and were identified as differentially expressed between the high female lethality lines and the low female lethality lines that had high tTA expression. RNA was isolated from staged female larvae on diet without tetracycline. RPKM values for a gene (rows) were normalized to the highest RPKM expression level to determine the relative normalized RPKM expression levels across all eight lines.
