Figure 6

Volcano plot showing host transcripts that were differentially expressed in the gut tissues of C. rosa s.s and C. quilicii. The transcripts expression level data were supported by at least 100 reads in each category (i.e. in C. rosa s.s or C. quilicii) or five CPM (Counts Per Million) by edge R analysis^44,45. The red dots indicate points-of-interest, i.e. the best BLAST hits⁵³ on the manually annotated and reviewed Swiss-Prot database⁵⁴, that displayed both large magnitude fold-changes (x axis) and high statistical significance (−log10 of p value, y axis). Points with a fold-change less than 2 (log₂ = 1) and/ or a False Detection Rate (FDR) corrected p value of less than 0.05 are shown in black, and indicate transcripts that did not change significantly in expression between the two species. Panel A, B, C = the transcripts that had the most, medium and least difference in their expression between the two species.
