Results of the gene-set enrichment analysis (GSEA) testing for differences in expression of color-associated gene sets between color phenotypes

contrast	Pteridine synthesis	Carotenoid metabolism	Melanin synthesis	Guanine synthesis (Iridophore)
RED vs BLUE	0.026	0.521	0.618	0.698
GREEN vs BLUE	0.032	0.378	0.507	0.752
GREEN vs RED	0.844	1.000	0.510	0.635

For each pair-wise comparison the false detection ratio (FDR) is shown with significant results (FDR < 0.25) highlighted in bold. Genes included in each set and their expression profiles are illustrated in Fig. 2
