<td align=left colspan=1><font face=Helvetica size=2>Many of the data types
in the previous slide are hot-linked and it is easy to generate a small web
of correlations between any transcript of interest and many other
transcripts. In this case, we have used green lines between transcripts that
have positive correlations, and red lines between transcripts that have
negative correlations. Correlations have been multiplied by 100. The
correlation of 0.96 between App and Hsp84-1 reads 96.<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>These are Pearson product moment
correlations and they are sensitive to outliers. If you prefer, you can
recompute Spearman rank order correlations.</font><br>

(the active webqtl version) you will see that it now has a new symbol and

represented by more than 10 probe sets. Thus this ID number is essential to

QTLs detected by WebQTL that we will describe in other slides. Read this as:
App has a suggestive QTL on Chr 2 at about 140 Mb and the D allele inherited
from DBA/2J confirms a higher expression level at this marker.<span

is not even formally �suggestive� but does make an interesting looking blip
