RT-qPCR transcript profiles displaying mean normalized quantities in the lake-type and riverine ecotypes. "72 kDa" is 72 kDa type IV collagenase precursor (Genbank:CB510651), "TropS" is troponin I, slow skeletal muscle (Genbank:CB510901), and "SinMit" is single-stranded DNA-binding protein, mitochondrial precursor (Genbank:CA062007). Expression is relative to the geometric mean of expression levels of normalizers 40S ribosomal and 5-aminolevulinate synthase (Genbank:CB493907 and CA058136). Malate dehydrogenase (Genbank:CA044864) is included as an example a feature that was not significantly differentially regulated with the microarray analysis. Significance was determined by a one-tailed Mann-Whitney U test, *denotes p ≤ 0.05 **denotes p ≤ 0.001.
