Number of genes with a TC score above the threshold, as a function of the size of the moving window (2n).
Starting from 2n=20, the number of correlated genes reaches a plateau.

Figure 3:
Histogram of the gene densities among the genome (blue histogram bars), within 2 Mb slices. The histogram of the numbers of correlated genes (red bars) is superimposed to the gene densities and harbors a color shape proportional to the percentage of correlated genes among the total number of genes for each slice. It appears that highest percentages of genes presenting a significant correlation of expression with their neighbours, do not correspond to highest gene densities.
