Additional file 3: of Analysis of a spatial gene expression database for sea anemone Nematostella vectensis during early development

Subsequent expression domains of genes from an expression database. Pairs of subsequently available expression domains (third and fourth columns) are ordered in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet table by their initial and final stages of development (first and second columns, respectively). The percentages (sixth column) are the relative frequencies (from the gene counts in the fifth column) for each pair of expression domains. A change from cylindrical expression pattern symmetry to biradial or bilateral symmetry is indicated in the seventh column with “symmetry break”. Changes of expression over major regions are indicated in the eighth column (appeared = expression is observed only in the second stage, major change = expression moved to another major region, minor change = expression in the second stage is limited to the same major region(s) as in the first stage, none = no expression is observed in both stages, vanished = expression is observed only in the first stage).
