Validation of expression profile of the DEGs obtained from V. alginolyticus and V. parahaemolyticus infected surf clam libraries by quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR). Control = Expression of beta-actin gene from the infected surf clams. Bars with asterisks indicated values that were significantly different (P < 0.05) from control samples. Error bars indicated standard deviations of averages from 5 replicates
