Figure 6

CIA general associations - overlap between gene and protein space. For each life cycle stage, the left ellipse shows the number of general GO term associations in gene space whereas the right ellipse shows the number of general GO term associations in protein space. The amount of identical GO terms is shown in the overlapping region of the ellipses. In general, more GO term associations emerge form gene space than from protein space. Two exceptions can be observed: the sporozoite stage, where more associations are found in protein space and the gametocyte stage, where a similar number of associations is found in each space. These tendencies can be also observed in Figure 7.
