GO term over-representation analysis of DEGs in the gills tissue of mussels exposed to heat stress.

Gene Ontology terms enrichment analysis was carried out comparing the GO term frequency distribution into each condition against that in the whole microarray set (hypergeometric statistics, p,0.05). Only the lowest node per branch of the hierarchical structure of the Gene Ontology that fulfills the filter condition - cut off 3 sequences- was reported. Showed are: experimental condition; Level, level in the GO tee of biological processes; GO Term, over-represented feature; N, number of mussel sequences associated to each GO term; up, Number of up-regulated genes; Gene ID, EMBL accession number of each sequence found. the over-represented GO terms in heat stresses animals versus 16°C (hypergeometric stats, p,0.05).
