Pathways involved in OPs response.

Pathway/mechanism investigated were: genes downstream daf-16 (DAF-16), genes regulated by the GATA transcription factor ELT-2 (ELT-2), genes regulated by the Mediator subunit MDT-15 (MDT-15), genes downstream pmk-1 (PMK-1) and cadmium responsive genes (Cd). Number of genes associated with each pathway or mechanism are shown. Overlapping genes are the number of genes belonging to a pathway that are regulated in each treatment. P-values were calculated using hypergeometric test.
