Number of unigenes present in expression level categories
| Stage | Number of unigenes | Percentage of total unigenes (%) |
|---|---|---|
| All stages: | ||
| Constitutive highly expressed genes | 1,347 | 12.47 |
| Constitutive low | 8,269 | 76.56 |
| Single Stages: | ||
| Egg specific | 29 | 0.26 |
| Larvae specific | 136 | 1.25 |
| Pupae specific | 110 | 1.01 |
| Mated Female specific | 35 | 0.324 |
| Adults (Female and male) specific | 50 | 0.46 |
Lists of genes present in each category is provided as matrices in Additional file 1. Constitutive highly expressed genes have modENCODE expression values of “High” or greater across all stage specific samples. Sparsely expressed genes have a value of “Low” or lower.
