RT-qPCR validation of RNA-Seq results. Validation of gene expression levels (44 selected genes) through the Pearson’s correlation (r) between FCs (log2 scale) observed in RT-qPCR and RNA-Seq results in the pairwise comparison between the winged and wingless morphs. a WPF versus WLPF; b GP versus WLPF; c male versus WLPF. FC, fold change, the relative expression of a gene in one morph to another
