Volcano plots for the effect of sex (a) and diet (b) in the muscle tissue, and for the effect of diet (c) in the blood tissue. The Y-axis shows the –log10 q-values for the effects of sex (a) or diet (b and c), whereas the X-axis represents the fold change (FC), with FC equal 1 representing equal expression between the two compared groups. In A, FC values to the left and right represent the up-regulation of DEG in male and female calves, respectively. In B and C, FC values to the left and right represent up-regulation of DEG in the control and restricted diets, respectively. Genes with significant (q-value < 0.05) effect of diet are highlighted in red. Extreme values of FC (< or > 5) and q-value (< 1.0E-06) were removed from the plot
