Promiscuity of significant genes in FCs. Significant genes for each FC were pooled together and tabulated. The histogram shows the distribution of how frequently a gene is found to be significant in one or more FCs. The x-axis is the number of FCs in which a particular gene is found to be significant, and the y-axis is the number of unique genes that meets that corresponding requirement. For instance, the maximum number of FCs that a gene was found to be significant in was 44, with only one gene achieving that criteria (AKR1C3; Entrez ID 8644). This observed in the histogram at the 44th position on the x-axis, with a height corresponding to 1 (represented as a dot due to the scale). A total of 9091 genes were found to be significant in only one to three FCs
