Figure 1

Venn diagram. Venn diagram of genes significant (Ttest p < 0.05) up or down regulated after three hours of ethylene exposure, depending of the method used to calculate gene expression. This diagram shows exactly the differences and similarities between all the methods. PDNN, MAS 5.0 (MAS, or GCOS), dChip PMMM (PMMM), dChip PM only (PM), RMA and GC-RMA were used. Only 790 genes were in common for all four algorithms. Comparable results were obtained from the low-light treatment. Areas with one letter shows genes which are unique for one method, areas with two letters shows genes which are only in common between these two methods, and so on.
