Fig. 1.

Results of flux and impact uncovered by the dynamic impact approach (DIA) based on Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) Pathways database analysis of the bovine muscle transcriptome for each time comparison. Notes: Blue lines show the impact of each category and the corresponding subcategories (P value<0.05 and no fold change). The impact is represented by the horizontal blue bars (large the bar larger the impact). Flux represents the direction of each category and the corresponding subcategory (green color, inhibition; yellow, stable; red color, activation, with different color intensities according to the level of up-regulation or down-regulation).

Fig. 2.

The top 20 most affected metabolic Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways ranked by overall effect value in adipose tissues of beef cattle on comparison of 18 vs 24. The transparent bars represent the effect values (0 to 50), flux represents the direction of each category and the corresponding subcategory (green color, inhibition; yellow color, stable; red color, activation, with different color intensities according to the level of upregulation or downregulation).

Fig. 3.

The top 20 most affected metabolic Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways ranked by overall effect value in adipose tissues of beef cattle on comparison of 18 vs 30. The transparent bars represent the effect values (0 to 50), flux represents the direction of each category and the corresponding subcategory (green color, inhibition; yellow color, stable; red color, activation, with different color intensities according to the level of upregulation or downregulation).

Fig. 4.

The top 20 most affected non metabolic Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways ranked by overall effect value in adipose tissues of beef cattle on comparison of 18 vs 24. The transparent bars represent the effect values (0 to 50), flux represents the direction of each category and the corresponding subcategory (green color, inhibition; yellow color, stable; red color, activation, with different color intensities according to the level of upregulation or downregulation).

Fig. 5.

The top 20 most affected non metabolic Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways ranked by overall effect value in adipose tissues of beef cattle on comparison of 18 vs 30. The transparent bars represent the effect values (0 to 50), flux represents the direction of each category and the corresponding subcategory (green color, inhibition; yellow color, stable; red color, activation, with different color intensities according to the level of upregulation or downregulation).
