Fig. 4From: Genes associated with hot defensive bee ball in the Japanese honeybee, Apis cerana japonicaNumbers of DEGs detected in the brain, fat body, and flight muscle. Venn diagram indicates the overlaps of DEGs between Comparison 1 (“balling” vs. “control,” left circle) and Comparison 2 (“heated” vs “control,” right circle). Regions colored orange highlight the group of DEGs specifically observed during the bee ball formation (i.e., “ball-only” group, including DEGs detected only in Comparison 1)Back to article page
