Immune genes (107) were screened out through the analysis of the co-expression network. a Analysis of network topology met the scale-free topology threshold of 0.85 when β = 7. b Cluster dendrogram and co-expression network modules produced by average linkage hierarchical clustering of mRNAs based on topological overlaps. c Heatmap depicts the topological overlap matrix among 500 randomly selected genes in the analysis. d Heatmap of the correlation between module genes (rows) and traits (columns). e Scatter plot shows the correlation between gene significance (GS) and module membership (MM) in four modules (salmon, red, royal blue, and purple)
