From: Lack of global meiotic sex chromosome inactivation, and paucity of tissue-specific gene expression on the Drosophila X chromosome

Figure 3

Paucity of X-linked genes with high expression bias toward testis. The testis::somatic tissue ratio of microarray signal intensities, observed between adult testis and a panel of somatic tissues [24], serves as a measure of testis bias of gene expression and is shown at bottom. Bars indicate proportion of genes up-regulated in testis development in the four bias categories. Orange bars, X-linked genes; blue bars, autosomal genes.
