Moreover, most genes undergo an expression transition between May and August, which corresponds to the transition from prespawning to sexual regression.
Thus, expression transition of this core gene set in the neuroendocrine brain may provide the molecular basis for phenotypic changes in the pituitary gland, circulating serum hormone levels and gonad status between seasons.
Cluster 7 (high anterior expression transitioning to lower expression in the middle midgut) contains a basic leucine-zipper transcription factor involved in regulation of ecdysone triggering hormone, cryptocephal (FBgn0000370; Gauthier et al. 2012).
Xrp1 (FBgn0261113), which induces upstream factors involved in axis formation during antenna development (Tsurui-Nishimura et al. 2013), was found in cluster 8 (low anterior expression transitioning to higher expression in the middle midgut).
Additionally, their temporal expression in oocytes and degradation during preimplantation development coincide with the timing of gene expression transition from maternal to zygotic control, indicating their roles as maternal effect genes.
Truth table construction: A truth table is a tabulated representation that illustrates the mapping of possible state (expression level) transitions under various input conditions, which obtained from digitized temporal gene expression profiles.
Mathematical Mapping by SL (Text S1): The mapping can be represented as a finite state machine (finite state automata) [33], [34] which consists of a finite number of states (expression states), transitions between those states, and inputs (transcriptional activity).
The expression Forest Transition (FT) and Ecological Transition (ET) were coined to describe the recovery path of forested areas (or more general natural vegetation) after heavy conversion into croplands.
There were 86 (0.5%) highly expressed genes, 2,850 (17%) medium expressed genes and 13,956 genes (82.5%) with low expression in transition lactation MSC (Table 1).
Little is known about how the parasite regulates its gene expression during transition from one developmental stage to another and in response to various environmental conditions.
