Fig. 2

Volcano plots of expressed transcripts in G. pallidipes 24 or 48 h post-challenges with T. b. brucei. Red spots indicate differentially expressed transcripts with two (Log2 = 1) or more fold-change (x-axis) and high statistical significance (-log10 of P-value, y-axis). Horizontal blue line shows where Bonferoni FDR corrected P-value = 0.05 with spots above the line having < 0.05 and spots below the line having > 0.05. Spots having a fold-change less than 2 are shown in black. Only the genes denoted with red spots above the blue line are considered significant. Abbreviations: hpc, hours post-challenge; hpc*, challenged vs unchallenged gut; hpc**, challenged vs unchallenged carcass
