Figure 2.

Hierarchical clusters of differentially expressed genes or gene transcripts (DEG; p ≤ 0.01). The expression level for each gene transcript was standardized to mean of 0 and scale to Standard Deviation (SD) of 1, which is the default setting of the Partek Genomics Suite software (Partek Inc., St. Louis, MO, USA). As indicated by the legend color box, gray color in the middle represents the mean value, 0, red color represents gene expression level above the mean, and blue color below the mean. The intensity of the color reflects the relative intensity of the fold change.
