DEGs were identified using the limma package [37]. The absolute value of | log2 fold change (FC) | was set to >1, and the cutoff value was adjusted to a P-value of < 0.05, which was considered to be statistically significant. The FDR and P values were screened to obtain all DEGs. The ggplot2 and the heatmap package were used to plot volcano diagrams and heatmap of DEGs, respectively.
