Appendix 2—figure 1. Greater phenotypic variability in Western diet fed monkeys does not show consistency in individual responsiveness across phenotypes.
(A) Monkeys fed the Western diet showed more variability than monkeys fed the Mediterranean diet in both diet-altered behavior (DAB) and change in body weight. However, the two phenotypes were not correlated within monkeys fed the Western diet (Pearson’s rWestern = −0.26, p = 0.28). (B) Western fed monkeys also showed more variability in the first principal component (PC1) of gene expression than Mediterranean fed monkeys. DAB and PC1 of gene expression were not significantly correlated in Western fed monkeys (Pearson’s rWestern = −0.13, p = 0.60). (C) PC1 of gene expression and change in body weight were not significantly correlated in Western fed monkeys (Pearson’s rWestern = −0.22, p = 0.36).
