Description

In Differential Analysis/Associations you compare something like species between two conditions (healthy and sick). Namco can show p-values, fold-change and others.

Downloading the table, I saw values ranging from -1 to +1.
A fold-change from my understanding ranges from 0.0001 to 1 to 2 and above. No values become negative.

I assume its not fold change, but log-transformed fold-change? Importantly, its Log2-transformed?
Need the info for analysis and paper methods.

Thank you.
