Gene expression throughout vertebrate embryogenesis

ABSTRACT: This study presents statistical analyses of gene expression during all 40 developmental stages in the teleost Fundulus heteroclitus using four biological replicates per stage. Patterns of gene expression for 7,000 genes appear to be important as they recapitulate developmental timing. Among the 45% of genes with significant expression differences between pairs of temporally adjacent stages, significant differences in gene expression vary from as few as five to more than 660. Five adjacent stages have disproportionately more significant changes in gene expression (>200 genes) relative to other stages: four to eight and eight to sixteen cell stages, onset of circulation, pre- and post-hatch, and during complete yolk absorption. The fewest differences among adjacent stages occur during ga
