Analysis of biological data.

Biological data were analysed with all 6 methods, the mean period value is reported in the table (standard deviation in brackets). The expected period is 24 h as the clock is entrained by a 24 h light:dark cycle. 1) The data were collected in two different conditions: LD and SD, monitoring 5 output genes in each of them. 2) (All) represents aggregated results from all data sets. 3) NoCAT3 represents aggregated results from all data sets except the CAT3 marker. +) The cases for which mean period is not statistically different from the 24 h are marked with +.
