Ligand-receptor pairs in oocytes and surrounding cumulus cells. (a) Distribution of ligands or receptors among genes expressed in COCs according to the degree of connectivity. (b) Biological processes enriched (FDR < 0.05) in ligands or receptors in coding genes expressed in COCs (see Additional file 3: Table S13 for full list of terms). (c) Ligand-encoding genes expressed in CCs with receptor-encoding genes expressed in oocytes. (d) Biological processes enriched (FDR < 0.05) in ligand-encoding genes expressed in CCs with receptor-encoding genes expressed in oocytes. (e) Ligand-encoding genes expressed in oocytes with receptor-encoding genes expressed in CCs. (f) Biological processes enriched (FDR < 0.05) in ligand-encoding genes expressed in oocytes with receptor-encoding genes expressed in CCs. To improve readability, genes with average FPKM > 2 were plotted on panels c and e
