Table 5 Differentially expressed (DE) genes summary

Analysis subset	Total DE genes^a	Annotated ORFs^b	Complete annotated ORFs
Ovary vs. testis cells	21,984	17,849	3868
Overexpressed in ovary cells	8706	7026	1587
Overexpressed in testis cells	13,278	10,823	2281
Crude vs. enriched testis cells	10,026	8220	1970
Overexpressed in crude testis cells	8637	7205	1732

^aGenes represented as open reading frame coding regions (ORF-CDs) and were considered as significantly DE with a log₂FC>2| and p-adjusted-value <1×10⁻³. ^bORFs were annotated by either the NCBI non-redundant (nr), Uniprot, KEGG or Pfam protein databases, with an e-value <1×10⁻³
