    Abstract:

    Female fig wasps differ phenotypically from conspecific males to the extent that often they cannot be associated with one another. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) of the genome and transcriptomes of one such fig wasp, Ceratosolensolmsi, generated five expression modules, which were flagged as blue, turquoise, brown, green and yellow. These involved two female-biased expression modules and three pupa-biased expression modules, respectively. Gene ontologies indicated three functional enrichment gene sets in modules turquoise and yellow. Two functional enrichment gene sets that participate in cell cycle or have nucleotide binding activityclustered in turquoise module. The functionally enriched gene set in yellow module played roles in cell differentiation, especially in neuron morphogenesis.
