Heatmap clustering and comparisons of DEGs related to saliva, digestion and detoxification between the red and green T. urticae among different transfers. (A) Heatmap shows the mean expression level of one-to-one orthologous genes between the red and green T. urticae feeding on the original host and three transferred hosts for 2 days. Red represents high regulation, and blue represents low regulation. Hierarchical clustering of these DEGs was performed based on Pearson’s correlation as the distance measure and the complete cluster method. (B) The DEGs associated with these families between the red and green T. urticae across all populations and transferred hosts. The red T. urticae is indicated in red and the other color represents the green T. urticae. (C) Comparison of form-specific detoxification genes between two forms of T. urticae. R, the red form of T. urticae; G, the green form of T. urticae
