From: Sex-related factors influence expression of mood-related genes in the basolateral amygdala differentially depending on age and stress exposure

Fig. 7

Heatmap representation of basolateral amygdala gene expression results. Expression for each main factor is expressed as the “male” phenotype divided by the “female” phenotype (i.e., sex chromosome complement, XY/XX; organizational, male gonads/female gonads; activational, testosterone/blank). Red is indicative of higher levels of expression in male phenotypes; blue is indicative of higher levels of expression in female phenotypes. Heatmap representation was done for a weanlings, b adult non-stressed, and c adult stressed. For main effect comparisons: **p < 0.01; *p < 0.05; # p < 0.1
