WCGNA identified 13 gene modules each assigned an arbitrary color with the number of genes contained in each module ranging from 42 (salmon) to 3119 (turquoise). Each gene module showed variation in terms of the number of genes with expression significantly correlated with post-diet body fat (BF%), genes differentially expressed by diet, genes differentially expressed by strain, and genes associated with obesity traits in humans according to the GWAS catalog
