Fig. 2From: Eimeria maxima-induced transcriptional changes in the cecal mucosa of broiler chickensSummary of RNA-seq data in the chicken ceca between naïve (N: rGC11, rGC12 and rGC13) and Eimeria maxima-infected groups (EM: rGC31, rGC32 and rGC33). a Heat map showing normalized expression of the 500 most variable genes across all samples. Hierarchical clustering is performed using these genes and reveals that samples cluster based on a gene quantification (log2 of expression ratios). b The multidimensional scaling (MDS) plot of the dataset. By using a count-specific distance measure, edgeR’s plotMDS produces a MDS plot showing the relationship between all pairs of samplesBack to article page
