Morphological and Transcriptome Analyses Provide Insights into Growth Inhibition of Trichophyton rubrum Caused by Laser Irradiation

Figure 4

Differentially expressed genes between the laser and the control groups. (a) Heatmap of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the two groups. The 3 samples with laser treatment were clustered together, while the 3 samples in the control group were clustered into another group. (b) Volcano plot of DEGs between the two groups. The expression levels of Acyl-CoA N-acyltransferase (IPR016181, TERG_08182) and S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase (IPR029063, TERG_01150) were elevated in the laser irradiation group compared with those of the control group. (c) The DEGs were enriched in the GO terms associated with damage repair. The size of the circles represents the enriched gene count in the pathway; the colors indicate adjusted values. (d) The DEGs were enriched in the KEGG pathways. The legend is the same as (c).
