  1. This table depicts a comparison of EcRi (columns 1 and 2) and 20E-final (columns 3 and 4) microarray data with five other gene sets: rows A and B, EcR-dependent genes expressed in the larval midgut [20]; rows C and D, cell death genes expressed in the larval salivary gland [37]; rows E and F, genes that change expression in response to starvation or a sugar diet [45]; rows G and H, genes that change expression in response to either paraquot, tunicamycin, or H2O2 [43]; and rows I and J, genes that change expression in response to bacterial insult [44]. Each gene set is divided into upregulated or downregulated genes as represented by the arrows, with the number of genes in each dataset represented by '(n =)'. The first number in each cell represents the number of overlapping genes between the two datasets being compared. The numbers within the parentheses in each cell represent a p value based on the χ2 test that accounts for the differences between the observed and expected numbers. Correlations discussed in the text are marked with an asterisk (all those showing a p value ≤ E-10).
