Fig. 1From: Functional development of the adult ovine mammary gland—insights from gene expression profilingA small number of genes account for 60 % of all the RNA-seq reads. Graphical depiction of genes that were most highly expressed in the ovine mammary gland, as measured by RNA-seq, during a: late pregnancy (day 135 of pregnancy ± 2.4 SD, n = 27) and b: lactation (day 15 post-partum ± 1.27 SD, n = 18). Notes: Genes highlighted (in blue) represent genes which are highly expressed in only one physiological state. The number below each gene is the percentage of reads for that gene compared with the total number of reads in the sampleBack to article page
