The candidate gene dataset (Additional data file 2) is enriched with genes whose SAGE tag expression profile positively correlates with that of daf-19. 'Random genes' (black line) represents the correlation profile in gene expression between daf-19 and a random set of 1,000 genes in C. elegans; 'before filtration' (blue line) represents the correlation profile between DAF-19 and a raw list of genes that contain all putative X-box motifs in their promoters; and 'after comparative filtration' (green line) represents the correlation profile between DAF-19 and the set of filtered genes that contain X-box motifs in orthologous genes in three Caenorhabditis species.
