Gene expression differences consistent with water loss reduction underlie desiccation tolerance of natural Drosophila populations

Table 3 GO enrichment analysis using DAVID tool of the genes that gain or lose targeting by tRFs in response to desiccation stress in tolerant and in sensitive strains (Additional file 10: Table S9C)
