Gene co-expression analysis across the four ewe breeds (Suffolk, Belclare, Fur and NWS) at the follicular phase of a synchronised oestrous cycle. A Gene set enrichment analysis identified module 1, 2 and 3 to differ between Irish and Norwegian ewe breeds. B Over-representation analysis of genes showed the gene ontology terms in module 1, 2 and 3. The size of the circle is proportional to its normalized enriched score (NES) value.
