[i] The table provides numbers of genes showing ASE and non-ASE in F1 hybrids in five different organs, separately for misexpressed and not misexpressed genes. Only genes that could be assigned a chromosomal location are included in the list. Differences in the distribution of ASE and non-ASE genes between a misexpressed and not misexpressed gene were assessed by a χ2 test. P-values are provided in the sixth column. Significant differences (P-value < 0.05) are highlighted in bold and underlined if significance was retained after Holm-Bonferroni correction.
