Table 2 Top 10 DEGs when comparing growing (G) vs. preovulatory (P) follicles. A positive fold change indicates that the gene was more highly expressed in P, and a negative fold change indicates that the gene was more highly expressed in G. Annotation assignment indicates whether that sequence was assigned to a specific gene or was unannotated.
