  1. *The ratio of expression levels (relative to unchallenged controls) determined by microarray compared to RT-PCR. The ratio of 1:1 is defined as 1:1-1.4. The genes analyzed are listed in Table 2. †Number of microarray:RT-PCR data pairs. Twenty genes were analyzed at four time points, equaling 80 data pairs. ‡Percentage of each category in the total number of data pairs.
