Fig. 1: Global changes of the transcriptome during postnatal muscle growth.
From: Genome-wide epigenetic dynamics during postnatal skeletal muscle growth in Hu sheep
a Skeletal muscle tissues from the six Hu sheep were processed for histological and morphometric analysis. Representative photomicrographs of WGA-stained muscle sections and their digitally processed image from D3 to M12. Scale bar: 130 µm (n = 6). b Quantification of average muscle fiber CSA of the seven Hu sheep from D3 to M12. ***P < 0.0001; n = 6. c Upset plot summarizing the distribution of DEGs in all comparison groups (n = 6). d The GO items related to muscle growth of comparison groups referring to D3 (D3-X) in (c). e KEGG pathways of D3-X groups DEGs in (c). Error bars represent mean values ± SD. CSA cross-sectional area, WGA Wheat Germ Agglutinin, DEGs differentially expressed genes, SD standard deviation.
