Model for the molecular mechanism of temperature sensing via rhodopsin signaling during A. cerana japonica balling behavior. Colored boxes indicate the genes involved in rhodopsin signaling (see “phototransduction—fly” in KEGG pathway) and expressed in all tissues in A. cerana japonica (see Additional file 1). Red boxes indicate the “ball-only” DEGs upregulated in all three tissues. Orange shows the “ball-only” DEG upregulated in the brain. Black indicates the genes expressed but not upregulated or downregulated in “ball-only” condition
