Contribution of stage and sex to total gene expression variation in mouse and human embryogenesis. Principal component analysis of A mouse embryonic samples (n = 106) and B human embryonic samples (n = 1529) reveal strong clustering across developmental stages. In both mouse and human, the majority of the total variance is explained by PC1 and PC2. A regression model was applied in C mouse and D human to estimate the distribution and density of the fraction in expression variance for each gene, as seen in the violin plots, that can be explained by embryonic stage and sex
