Developmental transcriptomics of mouth-form plasticity in Pristionchus pacificus. (A) The two mouth forms developed by adult P. pacificus with teeth colored for ease of visualization. (B) A gene-regulatory network for mouth-form development with St-promoting genes colored in blue and Eu-promoting genes in red. Genes in black may regulate the development of both morphs. (C) Experimental design for developmental transcriptomics. The timing of different stages in the life cycle of P. pacificus is shown. Different conditions are indicated by color per the legend on the left. Colored circles above time points represent when the different conditions were sampled. (D) A screenshot of the Shiny app that can be used to visualize transcriptomic data for any gene in any condition.
