Filtering of genes based on network properties in the sea bass. Scatterplots of correlation between GS vs module membership of each module which were used for determination of interesting modules for sex trait in the gonadal transcriptome of sea bass using method #3 (A) and #2 and/or #4 (B). The modules were selected when GS was positively and significantly correlated to modular membership. Gene significance is defined as − log of the p-value of association of the gene with the trait. Module membership (kME) measures how correlated each gene is to a particular module eigengene [68]
