Functional prediction of the sex-biased and situs-biased DEGs. A The heatmap of the sex-specific DEGs for each sample. The red indicates the highest expression and dark blue is the least. On the left, the W-linked genes are indicated by pink lines while the Z-linked genes are indicated by blue lines. On the right, representative sex-biased genes were shown. B GO analysis of the sex-biased genes and the enriched GO terms were shown. C The heatmap of the situs-specific DEGs between the two sides in females. Among the 159 DEGs, 138 were upregulated in the left while 21 were upregulated in the right. Note that only 8 DEGs were located on sex chromosomes. D GO analysis of the situs-biased genes in females
