From: Meta-analysis of RNA-seq expression data across species, tissues and studies
Typical inter-tissue distances are similar among most datasets, with Lin et al. tissues exhibiting smaller distances. The distribution of all pairwise distances among tissues within an individual species for various datasets is shown with the square root of the Jensen–Shannon Divergence (JSD½) as the distance metric throughout. a The distances among tissues calculated for all interspecies datasets using 4,547 orthologs common to the 11 amniotes assessed. Black bars indicate the mean. b The distribution of distances among the five tissues common to all studies assessed (brain/cerebellum, testis, heart, kidney, and liver), for mouse and human/macaque species over 11,850 human/mouse orthologs
