From: Frontloading of stress response genes enhances robustness to environmental change in chimeric corals
Chimerism induces transcriptomic changes in S. pistillata and Symbiodinium sp. (A, B) Number of genes differentially expressed, between non-chimeras and chimeras (A1–A3) or between Symbiodinium sp. hosted in non-chimeras or chimeras (B1–B3): (A1, B1) When acclimated for 1 year at 10-m depth; (A3, B3) after 48h of exposure to a sudden and stressful environmental change (translocation to 2-m depth) and (A2, B2) shared between the two environmental treatments. (C) Biological process (GO terms) significantly enriched (Mann–Whitney U test) in S. pistillata at 10m. Over-expressed/represented genes/GO terms are in red and under-expressed/represented genes/GO terms in blue (italic: p value < 0.05; normal: p value < 0.01; bold: p value < 0.001). x/y reflects the number of genes with a |log2FC| > 2 in the GO category/the total number of genes in the GO category
