	TGF- Dauer pathway adult transcriptional targets. Results obtained by comparing the microarray results of the dauer-constitutive mutants daf-7(e1372), daf-7(m62), and daf-1(m40) with dauer-defective mutants daf-3(mgDf90), daf-5(e1386), and daf-7(e1372);daf-3(mgDf90) double mutants at the permissive temperature, 20C, on the first day of adulthood.

Osmotic stress	Transcripts that showed significantly altered expression with 500 mM salt (NaCl) vs 100 mM salt when no food was present	DESeq(version 1.10.1), FDR < 0.05.	WBPaper00050726:OsmoticStress_regulated_NoFood
	Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (embryonic 24hr 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.

	Genes with expression level regulated by genotype (N2 vs CB4856) and age at old adults stage (214 hours at 24 centigrade).	For model 2, authors used 100 permutations to estimate the FDR threshold. Per permutation, genotypes and ages were independently randomly distributed, keeping the among-gene structure intact. Then for each spot (23,232) on the array, model 2 was tested. The obtained P-values were used to estimate a threshold for each of the explanatory factors. Authors also used a genome-wide threshold of -log10 P-value = 2, which resembles an FDR of 0.072 and 0.060 for marker and the interaction age-marker for the developing worms and FDR of 0.050 and 0.065 for marker and age-marker for the aging worms. For the physiological age effect, authors used a log10 P-value = 8 in developing worms (0.012 FDR) and -log10 P-value = 6 (0.032 FDR).	WBPaper00040858:eQTL_age_regulated_aging

• Pattern: The col-43::gfp fusion gene pC3894G was expressed in all hypodermal cells in the L2d stage. col-43 transcripts in the L2d stage were also confirmed by in situ hybridization. The L2d and dauer larvae develop to the adult worm through the L3 and L4 larval stages, respectively, after the environment shifts to nutrient-rich conditions. pC3894G was continuously expressed in L3; however, it was rarely expressed in L4 and adults recovered from L2d larvae. The expression of the col-43::gfp fusion gene pCTL3894G was not detected due to the signal peptide produced by this fusion gene. The COL-43::GFP fusion protein could be transported into the extracellular matrix and diffuse to an undetectable level. Two promoter deletion constructs, pC1345G and pC1292R, were expressed in the hypodermal cells in the L2d and the L3 stage recovered from the L2d stage. These promoter deletion constructs were continuously expressed in the dauer, the L4 and the adult recovered from stage L2. The additional promoter deletion construct, pC610G was also expressed in the hypodermal cells in the L2d and recovered L3 stage, but was rarely expressed in the L4 stage and adult recovered from the L2d stage. These results indicate that two upstream regions of col-43, within 0.6 kb and from 0.6 kb to 1.3 kb, were required for the expression and up-regulation in the dauer cycle of col-43 expressions, respectively. In the late adult stage the ectopic expressions of three promoter deletion constructs in the uterus and posterior intestinal cells were considered to be endogenous misexpressions of a series of pPD vectors.
