Data QC and design overview

Samples per species, timepoint, and layer
Colony coverage
Which colonies have which timepoints in the gene-expression layer. Gaps matter for every repeated-measures model.

Layer overlap
Number of samples shared between each pair of layers (all species pooled). The diagonal is the layer’s own n.
