Correlation of un-annotated transcribed features in human, gorilla, and chimpanzee. We show the Spearman’s correlation between RPKM expression values across tissues of novel transcribed features between human versus chimp (purple) and human versus gorilla (orange), ranked by correlation in the latter set. Overall, novel transcripts are more highly correlated between human and gorilla, with, in both cases, testis being the most highly correlated tissue, followed by heart, liver, and kidney. The sex of the tissue donors was not found to be statistically significant.
