  1. The most statistically significant pathways were filtered for KEGG Pathways, FDR ≤ 0.2, p ≤ 0.05, and ≥3 hits and are listed alphabetically. In the dataset column, the data was derived from solely statistically significant metabolites, solely statistically significant transcripts, or from both statistically significant metabolites and gene transcripts. #Hits represent the number of gene transcripts and/or metabolites that are significant in the indicated pathway. *Pathways that are unique to the indicated outcome.
