The compensatory muscle growth response involves only a subpart of the molecular signature of the hyperplastic growth zone. Venn diagram representing the distribution of genes of the compensatory muscle growth signature and genes up-regulated in the superficial hyperplastic growth zone of the late trout embryo. Functional categories inferred from genes common to the compensatory muscle growth and the hyperplastic growth zone signatures are detailed and major functional categories specific to hyperplastic growth zones are mentioned. The 312 genes specific of the compensatory muscle growth response were mostly related to translation, protein folding, RNA processing and ribosome biogenesis
