Hierarchical tree cluster of differentially expressed genes in the bovine embryo during the implantation period (Days 7 to 28 of gestation). Two-fold and greater differences in gene expression between Day 28EEM vs. Day 28F are selected in the expression profiles from all samples of Day 7E, 14E, 21E, 28EEM and 28F. Normalized and log₂ transformed expression data were used for the clustering analysis. The yellow cells indicate up-regulated genes in the median of the total value; the blue cells indicate down-regulated genes in the median of the total value. The black cells indicate no changes in expression.
