Background: The availability of various high-throughput experimental and computational methods allows biologists to rapidly infer functional relationships between genes. It is oft...
Background: Genes that are co-expressed tend to be involved in the same biological process. However, co-expression is not a very reliable predictor of functional links between gen...
