Fig 7. Gene expression of commonly detected genes and expression-methylation relationship.

a) Relative gene expression of twenty-two common genes detected by both methods (Annotation of the Differentially Methylated Regions and RNA-Seq analysis) in vaccinated against control birds b) Gene expression and methylation level of its correspondent peaks. The points that perfectly align to the ordinates, are different genes assigned to a singular DMR. Observations with the same gene expression value but diverse methylation levels correspond to several DMRs contained within a gene.
