Comparisons of the number of co-expressed genes in the three subclasses of candidates genes across gender from (a) the FC subregion, including DFC (dorsolateral prefrontal cortex), MFC (anterior cingulate cortex), OFC (orbital frontal cortex), and VFC (ventrolateral prefrontal cortex); b the SC subregion, including AMY (amygdaloid complex), HIP (hippocampus), MD (mediodorsal nucleus of thalamus), and STR (striatum); c the SM subregion, including A1C (primary auditory cortex), M1C (primary motor cortex), S1C (primary somatosensory cortex), and V1C (primary visual cortex); d the TP subregion, including IPC (posteroinferior parietal cortex), ITC (inferolateral temporal cortex), and STC (posterior superior temporal cortex). p-values were calculated by the pairwise Wilcoxon test. *p < 0.05, **p< 0.01, ***p < 0.001, N.S. not significant.
