Strictly maternal class (SM): genes that are the subset of maternal genes that are not also classified as embryonic. |
A modified Welch F statistic was used for ANOVA. For each gene, regressed error estimates were substituted for observed error estimates. The substitution is justified by the lack of consistency among the most and least variable genes at each time point. Regressed error estimates were abundance-dependent pooled error estimates that represented a median error estimate from a window of genes of similar abundance to the gene of interest. A randomization test was used to compute the probability Pg of the observed F statistic for gene g under the null hypothesis that developmental time had no effect on expression. P-values were not corrected for multiple testing. |

Diet: supplemented with milk fat-containing protein powder from L1 to day 2 adult stage. |
Transcripts that showed significantly decreased expression in N2 animals fed with OP50 supplemented with milk fat-containing protein powder from L1 to day 2 adult stage. |
Differential expression analysis between two conditions (three biological replicates per condition) was performed using DESeq2. Genes with p-value < 0.05 and Fold Change > 2 found by DESeq2 were assigned as differentially expressed. |

Expression Pattern Group F, enriched for genes involved in embryonic development. These patterns have in common that they all have genes of which the expression goes up after the juvenile stage. The expression of the genes in these patterns remains high or even goes up after reproduction. |
The significance (P 0.0001) of the relative age (time) was used to determine if a gene was differentially expressed between the three age (time) groups. The effect of this factor explaining gene expression differences was used to determine if the expression went up or down during the two age/time periods (t1 - t2 and t2 -t3). Authors used a permutation approach to determine the thresholds for the different mapping strategies. For each of the used models for eQTL mapping, authors used 23,000 permutations. For each permutation, authors randomly picked a spot; each spot could only be picked once. The gene expression and relative lifespan values were than randomly distributed over the RILs (and time points) and used for mapping. In this way, authors obtained a threshold for each of the explaining factors. For the single time points, authors used a FDR of 0.01 to adjust for multiple testing. The genome-wide threshold for this FDR is -log10 P = 3.8 for each of the three time points. For the combined models (t1 to t2 and t2 to t3), authors used a genome-wide threshold of -log10 P = 4, which resembles an FDR of 0.006, 0.001, and 0.006 for marker, age, and the interaction between marker and age, respectively. To determine the threshold for the single gene examples, authors used 1000 permutations as in the genome-wide threshold. The difference is that they use the gene under study in all of the permutations. The P-values for the gene specific thresholds were determined at FDR = 0.05. |
