Effects of Wolbachia on immune and metabolism genes. Differential expression analysis of immune-related genes and metabolism genes between Wolbachia-infected and Wolbachia-free female adults expressed in the abdomens. Immune-related genes of SBPH were obtained from Zhu et al. [45] and metabolism genes were obtained by KEGG. The x-coordinate shows fpkm value of the Wolbachia-infected females, and the y-coordinate shows the log2(fpkm w+/fpkm w−) value. Dotted lines show the 1 and − 1 values of the y-coordinate. To make the results more intuitive, points were excluded where w+ FPKM was greater than 200, including 19 non-significantly expressed immune genes (Additional file 2: Table S16) and one significantly expressed metabolic gene (Additional file 2: Table S17)
