Determination of soft-thresholding power in WGCNA. (a) Analysis of the scale-free fitting indices for various soft-thresholding powers (β). (b) Mean connectivity analysis of various soft-thresholding powers. (c) Histogram of the connection distribution when β = 4. (d) Checking the scale-free topology when β = 4. According to Fig. 2C and D, k and p(k) are negatively correlated (correlation coefficient 0.85), indicating that a gene scale-free network can be resumed. (E) Clustering dendrograms of genes based on dissimilarity topological overlap and module colours. As a result, 12 co-expression modules were constructed and are shown in different colours. These modules are arranged from large to small according to the number of genes included
