Heatmap (a) and radial plot (b) depicting the differences in the type I Interferon response induced by canarypox virus (CNPV), pigeonpox (FeP2), fowlpox virus (FWPV), lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) and penguinpox virus (PEPV). Fig. 3. a represents the log₂ fold change (FC) induction of the different genes up-regulated in the six samples compared to the control. A log₂FC of 0 is given where genes are not present over the cut off (±1). Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of the samples is represented by dendograms. Clustering analysis and heatmap was performed in the R package, gplots (Warnes, 2009). Fig. 3. b shows a radial plot depicting the magnitude and breadth of the type I interferon response induced by the six viruses. The distance from the centre of the plot indicates log2-fold change (ranging from −2 to 4)
