FIG 4.

Venn diagrams demonstrating the numbers of differentially expressed (DE) T. ni transcripts that were identified (at each time and commonly) across the indicated times following oral infection with AcMNPV OBs. For Venn diagram construction, we grouped time points into three major classes: early (0, 6, 12, and 18 h p.i.), middle (24 and 36 h p.i.), and late (48 and 72 h p.i.). Within the early group, time points 0 and 6 h p.i. contained very few DE T. ni transcripts, and those transcripts were not common among the other time points. Therefore, data for 0 and 6 h p.i. are not shown in the figure. Each circle represents the combined number of differentially expressed genes (induced and upregulated transcripts [A] and suppressed and downregulated transcripts [B]) for the indicated time point (for example, 12 h and 18 h) postinfection.
