DEGs between E. maxima precocious line and its parent stain. a: Venn diagram of DEGs for three different stages of the E. maxima precocious line and its parent strain. Three different stages of E. maxima precocious line and its parent strain were collected for RNA-seq, and the DEGs between the same stages of the two line/strain were used for drawing Venn diagrams. b: Gene ontology enrichment of DEGs between merozoite stages of precocious line and its parent strain. WTSO vs PLSO, WTUO vs PLUO and WTM vs PLM represent DEGs between sporulated oocysts, unsporulated oocysts, and merozoites of BJ-WT-130 and BJ-PL-98. Asterisks represent statistically significant (P < 0.05)
