Fig. 2

Effect of fixed time delays, preservation conditions and degradation levels on gene expression measurements and REOs. Scatter plots depict the consistency scores of REOs (pink, green and blue dots, left vertical axis) and the number of DEGs (purple dots, right vertical axis) between samples with different fixed time delays from GSE1347 (A), among samples with different preservation conditions from GSE17558 (B) and TCGA_BRCA (C). Boxplots depict the distribution of (D) number of DEGs and (E) consistency scores of REOs between samples with different degradation levels from SRP097611.
