Another example, but in
this case we are generating correlations between variation in transcript
levels with a database of approximately 430 published (and unpublished)
phenotypes from BXD strains. Notice that the N of strains is variable (from
21 to 28 above). Rank order statistics is more appropriate when N is under
30. |

The Published Phenotypes
database was prepared by Elissa Chesler and Robert Williams from data
extracted from the literature or sent to us for inclusion by our colleagues.
We especially thank John Crabbe (Oregon HSU) and Byron Jones (Pennsylvania
SU) for providing us with large pre-compiled data tables. |
