Real-time PCR data for fetal and newborn gonads of all relevant genotypes. Top: Ovarian genes that require Foxl2; Middle: Testis genes that are derepressed in the absence of Foxl2; Bottom: Ovarian genes that are independent of Foxl2. Note that several of these genes are differentially regulated in Foxl2-null ovaries aged 13.5 dpc. Arrows indicate the relevant changes in expression levels between neighboring conditions (unexplained change involving Inhbb as discussed in the text: dotted arrow). For each gene, normalized expression intensities (y-axis) are represented as a fraction of the maximum mean value observed (the latter being set to 100). The x-axis indicates the genotype and stage (E stands for "days post coitum" and P0 for birth, "0 days post natum").
