Pearson’s correlation analysis of the top 10 amino acids in the plasma with blood gas indices and antioxidant capacity of 1,000 m speed-racing Yili horses supplemented with β-alanine before and after racing (A–C) (C: α-alanine group T: β-alanine group). The intensity of the colors represents the degree of association. Red represents a significant positive correlation (p < 0.05), blue represents significantly negative correlation (p < 0.05), and white shows that the correlation was not significant (p > 0.05).
