The task report spreadsheet will open showing genes on rows and the results of the GSA on columns (Figure 1).

To get a sense of what filtering thresholds to set, we can view a volcano plot for a comparison. 

...

A volcano plot will open showing p-value on the y-axis and fold-change on the x-axis (Figure 2).  

If the gene labels are on (not shown), click on the plot to turn them off.

Thresholds for the cutoff lines are set using the text boxes on the left-hand side Significance card (Configuration panel > Content > Significance). The default thresholds are 2 are |2| for the X axis and 0.05 for the Y axis. 

• Click GSA report Switch to return to the task report spreadsheetthe browser tab showing the GSA report
• Click FDR step up
• Click the triangle next to FDR step up to open the FDR step up options
• Leave All contrasts selected
• Set the cutoff value to 0.05. Hit Enter.

This will include genes that have a FDR step up value of less than or equal to 0.05 for all three contrasts, 5μM vs. 0μM, 10μM vs. 0μM and 5μM:10μM vs. 0μM. FDR step up is the false discovery rate adjusted p-value used by convention in microarray and next generation sequencing data sets in place of unadjusted p-value. 

• Click Fold-change
• Click the triangle next to Fold-change to open the Fold-change options
• Leave All contrasts selected
• Set to From -2 to 2 with Exclude range selected. Hit Enter.

Note that the number of genes that pass the filter is listed at the top of the filter menu next to Results: and will update to reflect any changes to the filter. Here, 29 32 genes pass the filter (Figure 3).

Depending on your settings, the number may be slightly different.

• Click  to create a data node with only the genes that pass the filter

This creates a Filter list task node and a Feature a Filtered feature list data node (Figure 4).
