Correlations among physiological genes associated with behavior, immune genes 414 and viruses. Bubble plots representing the correlations between the different variables (genes and 415 viruses) analyzed by the Spearman Rank Correlation Test comparing age and nutritional groups: 416 2-week-old workers P-R (R-1), 2-week-old workers P-U (U-1), 3-week-old workers P-R (R-2), 3-417 week-old workers P-U (R-3). Bubbles represent significant associations between the variables 418 (p≤0.05). The size of the bubble represents the R-value and the color represents positive (black) 419 and negative (red) correlations. This article is a US Government work.
