Figure 3

Genes significantly up- and down-regulated in the intestine during natural metamorphosis at specific stages when compared to stage 53. Venn diagrams showing the number of genes significantly (a) up-regulated and (b) down-regulated in the intestine during natural metamorphosis when the indicated stages were compared to stage 53 by microarray. (c) Temporal changes in gene expression during natural development visualized by heatmap. Normalized mean-centered expression levels for each gene are shown with black representing mean expression levels of four stages for a given gene, and green and red indicating lower or higher than the average as shown in the color legend.
