Regulation of signaling genes by TGFβ during entry into dauer diapause in C. elegans

Table 1 Significantly regulated early dauer genes in three TGFβ pathway mutants.

Genotype	Harvest stage	Number of experiments	# genes up-regulated p < 0.05^a	# genes down-regulated p < 0.05
daf-7 vs. wild type	early dauer/L3	4	351	1069
daf-8 vs. wild type	late L2d/L2	3	180	679
daf-14 vs. wild type	late L2d/L2	3	552	1276
daf-c vs. wild type^b		10	2540	3076

^a Upregulated genes are expressed at a higher level in daf-c mutants than in wild type, and downregulated are the reverse.
^bThis row is not a summary of the rows above, rather, it is a reanalysis of the data with all ten experiments considered together.
