Fig. 6From: ELOVL gene family plays a virtual role in response to breeding selection and lipid deposition in different tissues in chicken (Gallus gallus)ELOVL3 expression contributes to the long chain unsaturated glycerophospholipids deposition in intramuscular fat of Gushi chicken. A Lipid molecules in intramuscular fat significantly correlated with ELOVL3 expression in pectoralis of Gushi chicken. The dots represent lipid molecules. Node size represents significant correlation degree, and the larger the node, the higher the correlation degree. The lines between the dots represent Pearson correlations. The red line is positive, and the blue line is negative. Other information is listed on the legend. B Proportion of different types of fatty acids at sn-1 and sn-2 positions of the positively correlated glycerophospholipid molecules. SFA (n = 0) indicates saturated fatty acids, MUFA (n = 1) indicates monounsaturated fatty acids, and PUFA (n ≥ 2) indicates polyunsaturated fatty acids.
