Differentially-expressed transcripts in Frankliniella occidentalis larval guts in response to tomato spotted wilt virus infection. (A) Volcano plot showing the distribution of differentially-expressed transcripts (DETs) in virus-infected guts relative to non-infected guts at three different times over larval development: 3-L1 = cohort of first instars three hours after removal of virus inoculum after a 24-h acquisition access period; 24-L2 = same cohort of insects developed into early second instars, 24 h after removal of inoculum; and 48-L2 = same cohort of insects entering into late second instars, 48 h after removal of inoculum. The horizontal and vertical dotted lines indicate cutoffs for log2-fold change ≥1 and FDR adjusted P-values ≤ 0.05, respectively. (B) Venn diagram depicting the number of shared and unique DETs between the three time-larval stages; numbers in parentheses indicate number of DETs in each time-larval stage
