Differential gene expression in the thoracic dorsum during the pupal-to-adult molt. (A) Comparison between newly-ecdysed-pupae (Pw phase) and pharate-adults (Pbl phase). (B) Comparison between pupae-in-apolysis (Pp phase) and pharate-adults (Pbl phase). Plots of significance and fold-change are indicated in the y- and x-axes, respectively. The horizontal line indicate p value = 0.05. The genes that display statistically significant differential expression (p value < 0.05) and high magnitude fold change (Log2FC cutoff = 0.5) are represented as light- and dark-blue dots above the horizontal line (dark-blue dots display Log2 fold-change greater than 2). Red dots below the horizontal line indicate p value > 0.05 and small magnitude fold change.
