Comparison of CSS genes in AMD samples at the early and late succession stages

A. Cluster analysis of probabilities of functional genes in the CSS gene set in AMD samples. The color in the heatmap shows the probabilities of functional genes in the CSS gene set, with larger values in red while smaller values in yellow. The results show that these functional genes are clustered into two groups. B. Comparison of the relative magnitudes of CSS genes in the early and late stage samples. The radar map shows the relative size of CSS genes in the early and late succession stage samples in each COG category. The asterisks show that the enrichments are significant (Fisher’s exact test, P < 0.05). Details of the COG categories are provided in the legend of Figure 2.
