Figure 4From: Comprehensive microarray-based analysis for stage-specific larval camouflage pattern-associated genes in the swallowtail butterfly, Papilio xuthusHeat map of the relative expression level of 3,376 P. xuthus genes by microarray results. Red and green indicate higher and lower expression level, respectively. The stage-specific co-expression clusters are shown right. C: constantly expressed genes; IM3: genes enriched in the intermolt of the third instar; IM3-4: genes enriched in the intermolt of both the third and the fourth instar; IM4: genes enriched in the intermolt of the fourth instar; EM3: genes enriched in the early stage of the third molt; EM3-4: genes enriched in the early stage of both the third and the fourth molts; EM4: genes enriched in the early stage of the fourth molt; MM3: genes enriched in the middle stage of the third molt; MM3-4: genes enriched in the middle stage of both the third and the fourth molts; MM4: genes enriched in the middle stage of the fourth molt; LM3: genes enriched in the late stage of the third molt; LM3-4: genes enriched in the late stage of both the third and the fourth molts; LM4: genes enriched in the late stage of the fourth molt. Stage and marking of each sample is shown above (for example, 4-10E, eyespot at 10 hours after head capsule slippage of the fourth molting period). Red indicates positive values and green indicates negative values (color spectrum bar is shown left; N.D., not detected). See also Figure 2.Back to article page
