Differential transposon and gene regulation on the Y Chromosome. (A) Differential TE expression between YS and YL males irrespective of age. Data represent the mean of four replicates with standard error bars (50% higher or lower expression, P < 0.05, Wald test). (B) Differential TE expression between YS and YL plotted against their differential TE abundance from Illumina mappings. (C) Lifespan curves of YS and YL males and backcross females. (D) Differential gene expression between YS and YL irrespective of age. Data represent the mean of four replicates with standard error bars (50% higher or lower expression, P < 0.05, Wald test).
