Never use unadjusted P values, as this will introduce many false positives. Different tools offer different multiple testing correction such as FDR or the more stringent BH. Always report your chosen method and the significance threshold applied to terms.

This is expected, due to underlying differences in database, algorithm, P value methods etc. As long as your methods are robust, sensible and reproducible, you can have confidence that your methods will stand up to scrutiny under peer review.

Lack of reproducibility through under-reporting methods is a common issue in this field (see Wijesooriya et al, linked below). Ensure to record all methodological details while you are working, including all the parameters and arguments applied, how the gene lists were generated, versions of databases and tools etc. If using R, specify a seed for constant random number generation in GSEA.

Functional categories are often broad and redundant. Use the FEA results as a guide, not the end point. Use visualisations and explore term redundancy methods to help focus results. Validate through aditional means according to the nature of your experiment, with the gold standard being wet-lab rather than *in silico* validation methods.

Keep in mind the limitations of the input data when working with novel species with uncurated resources.
