Microarray analysis after RNA amplification can detect pronounced differences in gene expression using limma

BMC Genomics

Table 3 Similarity in significance calls from the OneRA and the TwoRA (DRG,SN) comparisons using the Z-scores and limma statistics.

Number of top significant genes	Z-scores			Limma
	SSS(%)	FDR		SSS (%)	FDR
		OneRA	TwoRA		OneRA	TwoRA
100	59	3.7E-3	1.1E-2	87	5.23E-14	1.72E-14
300	59	7.1E-2	0.11	87	2.08E-12	6.56E-13
500	63	0.201	0.214	87	1.52E-11	5.59E-12

The significance similarity score (SSS) is the percentage of genes common to the OneRA and the TwoRA selected sets of top significant genes.
