In response to the reviewers' suggestion, we performed a comparison between the two independent replicates.
Comparison of the ratio of signal intensity above background of every spotted protein between the two independent replicates demonstrated suitable results with a Pearson correlation of r=0.869.
The relationship between correlations between estimated SNP variances of two independent replicates and the effective chain length of the SNP variance component.
One way to assess convergence of SNP-specific variances, is to evaluate the correlation between posterior means of variance estimates from two independent replicates, where a correlation close to 1 indicates that both independent chains have converged to very similar SNP-specific variances.
Results of two independent replicates are shown.
Each sample was tested in two independent replicates.
At least two independent replicates were performed.
