  1. Whitfield et al. [52] identified DEGs related to foraging ontogeny during the transition between nurses and foragers, controlling for the effect of age. Presented here are the results of a hypergeometric test between the foraging-related DEGs in the present study and the DEGs identified in Whitfield et al., which show a significant overlap
  2. *significantly greater overlap of genes than expected by chance; P < 0. 05; hypergeometric test
