Data belonging to each species were analyzed separately to obtain genes significantly regulated between foragers and one-day-olds by an F test (p < 0.01), numbers in parentheses. The comparison set was obtained from Whitfield et al 2006 [8] and consisted of genes significantly regulated between foragers and one-day-olds (p < 0.001). Only those genes that were present in the gene list of at least one species in the current study were included in the comparison set. Intersects of pair-wise comparisons between the two datasets are given along with results of Chi-square tests. | ||||
