GO terms to life cycle associations discovered by all three methods. Network view of the GO term to life cycle stage associations discovered by all three integrative analysis methods: CIA, GSVD and IBC. We observe that gametocytes and sporozoites are loosely connected to the rest of the network underlining the separation of these stages from the intraerythrocytic cycle. Merozoites possess the largest amount of GO term associations, while trophozoites show the lowest amount of associations. Further details concerning individual stage-to-GO-term mappings are addressed in the discussion.
