A Pathway Analysis Tool for Analyzing Microarray Data of Species with Low Physiological Information
Table 1
Pathways returned by searching the KEGG database. The list of
gene names of the microarray was first updated for all synonyms using the Gene
Ontology database before searching the KEGG database.

*None of the genes in the pathways present on the microarray were regulated.
These pathways were considered not related to the chicken line differences for
Salmonella infection response.**Plant or prokaryote-specific pathways—recognized due to
gene name similarity. Almost always these pathways were recognized by a very limited
number of genes on the microarray.***The genes with microarray data on the pathway are too limited in
number or their locations on the pathway are too scattered to conclude on the
relevance of the pathway for the studied traits.****The available microarray data of the genes on the pathway show
either limited or confusing up- or downregulatory patterns. |
