Relative abundances of the virulence and immunomodulation related transcripts determined by the transcript subgroups. The Venn diagram shows percentage distribution of the virulence and immunomodulation related transcripts (VIRs, n = 71), determined by the exclusive homology with the pathogen databases (PDR subgroup), observation of the signs of positive selection (PSR subgroup) and/or cytokine signaling relation (CSR subgroup) among the immunomodulation categorised transcripts. This diagram indicates that VIRs showing the signs of positive selection (Ka/Ks > 1; in PSR subgroup) are evolved towards cytokine signaling. The Venn diagram was drawn using eulerAPE v3 (http://www.eulerdiagrams.org/eulerAPE/) [118].
