Fig. 2From: Identification of novel molecular markers of mastitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus using gene expression profiling in two consecutive generations of Chinese Holstein dairy cattleComparison of gene expression profiles between mothers and daughters. a Venn diagram showing genes only expressed in S. aureus-positive mother-daughter pairs (purple circle), genes only expressed in S. aureus-negative mother-daughter pairs (yellow circle), and genes in intersection are common to both groups. b Linear regression analysis of expression levels for 201 genes exclusively expressed in the SM and SMD groups. c Linear regression analysis of expression levels for 162 genes exclusively expressed in the HM and HMD groups. d Significantly enriched (P < 0.05) KEGG pathways of genes exclusively expressed in the S. aureus-positive groups (SM and SMD). e Significantly enriched (P < 0.05) KEGG pathways of genes exclusively expressed in the S. aureus-negative groups (HM and HMD)Back to article page
