Groups represent the 20% most highly, least highly, and medium expressed genes for peak and breadth. Points for 'high' and 'low' groups significantly different from medium expression levels (Student's t-tests using Bonferroni correction) are represented by closed circles. Each point represents the Alu content in sliding windows of 1 kb (moving 200 bp at a time).

From top to bottom, each panel shows the following: difference in breadth of expression; number of switches from expressed to non-expressed; ranked peak of expression difference; expression intensity divergence estimated by using correlation coefficients as measure of distance; and expression intensity divergence estimated by using Euclidean distances.
