Figure 4. Functional analysis of differentially expressed S. stercoralis L1 and L3i genes.
Horizontal bar graph (A) depicting the number of contigs per functional category in each stage (x axis), according to BLAST matches to the KOG database (y-axis). BLAST matches with E values>0.05 were excluded. The strongest difference was found between L1 and L3i genes putatively involved in transcription (p = 0.004). L1 = blue; L3i = red. The table (B) lists the L1 and L3i biased Strongyloides contigs putatively classified under “transcription.”
