Time-specificity indexes (Tau index, τ) of two types of cattle tissues (fundic and pyloric mucosa) collected at four time points (3–5, 7–9, 10, and 21) post infection by O. ostertagi. compared to 0 dpi (control). (a) Time specificity for genes of the fundic tissue. (b) Top five GO enriched terms (FDR < 0.05) of the fundic time-specific genes. (c) Time specificity for genes of the pyloric tissue. (d) Top five GO enriched terms (FDR < 0.05) of the pyloric time-specific genes. The color gradient represents the FDR values of each enriched pathway.
