Starvation	Starvation-induced transcripts that showed significantly increased expression in post dauer animals comparing to wild type control.	edgeR	WBPaper00053713:Starvation-induced_postdauer_vs_control_upregulated
	Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (L2 all cell reference).	A Mann-Whitney U test with an empirical background model and FDR correction for multiple testing was used to detect expressed transcripts (Benjamini and Hochberg 1995). Genes and TARs with an FDR <= 0.05 were reported as expressed above background. Authors detected differentially expressed transcripts using a method based on linear models. Genes and TARs were called differentially expressed if the FDR was <= 0.05 and the fold change (FC) >= 2.0. To more strictly correct for potential false-positives resulting from multiple sample comparisons, authors divided individual FDR estimates by the number of samplesor sample comparisons, respectively. This resulted in an adjusted FDR of 1.3 * 0.0001 for expression above background and of 7.4 * 0.0001 for differential expression. Authors called genes selectively enriched in a given tissue if they met the following requirements: (1) enriched expression in a given tissue (FDR <= 0.05 and FC >= 2.0), (2) fold change versus reference among the upper 40% of the positive FC range observed for this gene across all tissues, and (3) fold-change entropy among the lower 40% of the distribution observed for all genes.

• Primary Identifier: Expr3031
• Remark: No detailed information on expression pattern in other tissue types.
• Pattern: Expressed in R2B, R5B, R6B and R7B neurons.

• Primary Identifier: Expr2381
• Remark: Immunostaining increased in neuronal cell bodies of unc-104 KIF1A mutants, whereas staining in axons was proportionately diminished. In addition, a broader expression pattern was observed in unc-104 KIF1A mutants compared with wild-type controls, because retention in the cell bodies enabled identification of previously undetected neurons. Protein_Description: FMRFamide related peptides (FaRPs).
• Pattern: Nerve ring and other neuronal processes.
• Subcellular Localization: In wild-type animals, FaRPs immunostaining was most concentrated in the nerve ring and other neuronal processes, whereas neuronal cell bodies had lower levels of expression.

	Transcripts that showed significantly decreased expression in flp-6(RNAi) comparing to in control animals.	Initially, differentially expressed genes were defined as FPKM R0.3 with a fold change R2 or %0.5. This resulted in 717 transcripts as differentially expressed in the flp-6 mutant. Authors therefore set a stringent criterion of FPKM R5, which reduced the number of differentially expressed transcripts to 239.	WBPaper00050225:flp-6(RNAi)_downregulated
