Transcriptomic alterations of cholesterol and LC-PUFA biosynthesis pathways in distal gut of Atlantic salmon. a and b Significance of pathway alteration (−Log10 (P-value)) for a cholesterol biosynthesis and b LC-PUFA biosynthesis pathway in relation to diets S45, S34B11, S22B22, S11B34 and SBM, containing 45 % of soy protein concentrate (SPC), 34 % SPC and 11 % of bean protein concentrate (BPC), 22 % SPC and 22 % BPC, 11 % SPC and 34 % BPC, and soybean meal (SBM), respectively. The pathways and their significance were identified by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). The cut-off point for pathway significance (P-value < 0.01, equal to –Log10 (P-value) > 2) is depicted as the dotted horizontal line. c and d The significance of pathway alteration for cholesterol biosynthesis plotted against c soy protein content in the diet and d the significance of pathway alteration for LC-PUFA biosynthesis pathway. Both associations are significant (P-value < 0.05) and fitted with the lines that represent reduced major axis regressions
