- *This sample from the complete correlation matrix of the BXN set illustrates both the expected syntenic correlations (the large red diagonal region extending down to the right) and several unexpected regions of high non syntenic correlation between different chromosomes. Red regions are linked with positive correlation between 0.20 and 1.0 (p < .05). Darker blue regions are linked with negative correlation of between -0.20 and -0.40 (p < .05). Beige and light blue regions are regions with intermediate correlation that are not statistically different from zero with 100 degrees of freedom. For example, the region of Chr 1 near D1Mit425 (labeled D1M 425 in this table) is linked positively to the mid distal part of Chr 6 and negatively to proximal Chr 7. The full table 9 is available online in several formats at www.nervenet.org/papers/bxn.html.
