gene-specific dye bias

Description: Many two-colour hybridizations suffer from a dye bias that is
both gene-specific and slide-specific. The former depends on the content of
the nucleotide used for labeling; the latter depends on the labeling
percentage. The slide-dependency was hitherto not recognized, and made
addressing the artefact impossible. Given a reasonable number of
dye-swapped pairs of hybridizations, or of same vs. same hybridizations,
both the gene- and slide-biases can be estimated and corrected using the
GASSCO method (Margaritis et al., Mol. Sys. Biol. 5:266 (2009),
