Figure 2

Smooth scatterplots of raw, gene-wise it p values generated from true experimental replicates R1 and R2 (left), and of absolute log2 fold changes (right). Spearman correlations between R1 and R2 are high, showing in principle a similar ranking of genes between technical replicates in an RNA-seq experiment. However, the plots also show a high number of genes which diviate stronger from the bisecting line, i.e. genes which would be selected by one experimental replicate but not by the other.
