  1. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) was used for functional analysis of 929 “Analysis Ready” (AR) and differentially expressed (DE; FDR ≤ 0.05) (AR-DE) genes from riboflavin-rescued (Rf+) and riboflavin-deficient (Rf-) chickens on embryonic day 15 (e15)
  2. aNote: FKER was the highest expressed gene found in liver of Rf + embryos at e15 (see Additional file 3, Riboflavin_e15 worksheet). However, this avian-specific gene was not annotated in the Ingenuity® Knowledge Base and therefore rejected by IPA
