GO annotation information of differentially expressed transcripts was clustered into three sub-ontologies, including molecular function, biological process, and cellular component [59]. Then hypergeometric test were performed with threshold value of padj ≤0.05 in each sub-ontology to indentify significant enriched GO terms. Reference means the transcripts annotated to the sub-ontology in the whole transcriptome.
