Overlap of DEGs between CAGEscan and previous studies of nurse and forager brain transcriptomes.
(a) Represents the relationship between gene models of the newest honey bee genome annotation (OGS 3.2) and the probes that were present on microarray platforms used in previous analyses of honey bee nursing and foraging behavior. Only probes that could be mapped to OGS 3.2 and genes that were present on at least one array (shown in the regions of overlap) were used to assess commonalities between CAGEscan and the two cited studies. (b) Shows the overlap of differentially expressed genes detected by CAGEscan and the two previous microarray based studies of nurse and forager transcription. (c & d) These Venn diagrams display the degree of directional concordance for nurse (c) and forager (d) upregulated genes in the three studies. The areas of overlap represent the number of concordant genes, while the numbers in parentheses indicate the percentage of concordance relative to the number of differentially expressed genes associated with nursing and foraging in each study.
