Table 2 Description of the three analyses and their objectives

From: Gene expression patterns in four brain areas associate with quantitative measure of estrous behavior in dairy cows

Analysis

Data

Objective

day0

Gene expression data from the tested brain area of Day0 cows and their average heat scores

To identify genes of which the expression in the tested brain area at the start of estrus was associated with estrous behavior

day12

Gene expression data from the tested brain area of Day12 cows and their average heat scores

To identify genes of which the expression in the tested brain area around mid cycle (diestrus) was associated with estrous behavior

day0 + day12

Gene expression data from the tested brain area of Day0 and Day12 cows and their average heat scores

To identify genes of which the expression in the tested brain area was associated with estrous behavior regardless of the phase of estrous cycle
