Differential expression of Fatq2b candidate genes in whole brain and gonadal fat pad. The diagram shows the relative gene expression profiles for Atp5e, Ctsz, Gnas, Rab22a, and Stx16 for HG2D-4 (left) and HG2D-5 (right) in whole brain (A, B) and Gonadal Fat Pad (GFP) (C, D). Differential expression of Ctsz in whole brain of was stronguest in HG2D-4 males (data not shown); though both sexes were differentially expressed (p < 0.05). Rab22a was differentially expressed in both whole brain and GFP in both the HG2D-4 and the HG2D-5 strains (p < 0 .001). Brackets represent the comparisons being made with the corresponding p-value *p = 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001.
