(A) UMAP dimensional reduction plots of scRNA-seq data with cells labeled by the stage of differentiation at which they were collected and separated by species. (B) The correlation of average gene expression patterns between technical replicates separated by species. Plots from left to right: (1) correlation in pluripotent cells (Time 0), (2) correlation in mesenchymal cells (Time 1), (3) correlation in osteogenic cells (Time 2). (C) Dot plots depicting the scaled average expression (dot color intensity) and the proportion of cells expressing each gene (dot size) of candidate genes (x-axis) at each stage of differentiation (y-axis).
