General gene expression profiles among transcriptome samples. a Illustration of two different sturgeon sensory organs under fluorescent stereomicroscope. Ampullary organs (AO) and neuromasts (NM) were dissected from neomycin treated sturgeon after 12 h and 24 h, as well as normal fish (Untreated). b Hierarchical clustering of all sequenced RNA samples. Numbers at the end of sample ID indicate two experimental repeats. Ut is short for sensory organs from untreated fish. EP is short for general epithelia dissected from ventral side of trunk. c Euclidean distances matrix of different groups. The smaller number indicates a more similar expression profiles between two groups
