Only pathways containing at least 3 metabolites are shown. #Metabolites is the number of metabolites identified through gas chromatography/mass spectometry in each pathway; #Sig is the number of metabolites that differed significantly (permutation P value <0.05) based on a permutation t-test; #Up and #Down are the number of metabolites up- and downregulated, respectively, in the jck genotype; #Sig. Up and #Sig. Down are the number of metabolites significantly up- and downregulated, respectively, based on P values from permutation t-tests. P values were calculated from a permutation null distribution based on 10,000 permutations.
