Specifically, among these 12 genes, the T-box transcription factor TBX6 (TBX6, LOC5564263, AAEL004174), proteasome maturation protein (LOC5564671), and methylthioribose-1-phosphate isomerase (M1Pi, LOC5578712, AAEL013828) were significantly increased after infection (P < 0.05), with FCs of 1.41, 1.41 and 1.43, respectively (Fig. 5). The gene discussed is POMP; the disease is infection.
