Heatmap and clustering of contigs identified as differentially expressed in one of the stage of the mite life cycle. Heatmap of the log normalized count Z-scores (i.e. for each contig the log-normalized count is centered to have mean of 0 and scaled to have variance of 1) for the 4005 contigs identified as differentially expressed in at least one of the following contrasts, using Bonferroni globally corrected P-values less than 5%: Young vs Phor, Phor vs Arrest, Arrest vs Pre-lay, Pre-lay vs Laying, Laying vs Post-lay, Post-lay vs Emerg
