| Algorithm | Authors extracted all genes with more than 25 mapped reads and computed fold changes for all gene loci between wild type and mutants. The group of genes with 4-fold up-regulation in wild type was considered to be specifically expressed in the germline, while genes with 4-fold down-regulation in wild type where assumed to be specific to somatic cell lineages. | Description | Genes specifically expressed in germline when comparing RNAseq data of N2 to glp-4(bn2ts). |
