* WIF1 and MAPRE1 are represented by two clones on the microarray± [GenBank:CN223165] may represent a retroviral element and may be present also elsewhere in the genome

1 Chromosome and positions (in Megabases) of transcripts are based on build 2.1 of the chicken genome

2 Where applicable, Ensembl gene from which transcripts are derived

3 Gene annotation. If applicable, gene name or name of putative orthologue are presented. NA = Not applicable, due to lacking annotation.

4 Previously identified QTLs for traits of femoral bone. ecirc1 = sex independent QTL for endosteal circumference, nc-bmd1 = female specific QTL for noncortical bone mineral density (BMD), bmd1 = female specific QTL for various measurements of BMD, tors1 = female specific QTL affecting femoral elasticity in torsion test.

5 The comparison between WL and RJ in which transcript was found differentially expressed (FDR-adjusted p-value < 0.0015. M = males, F = females, P = population (all WL compared to all RJ), ALL = M, F and P.

6 M-values log2(fold change) for M, F and P-comparison, respectively. Negative M-values indicate lower expression in WL.
