^aGroup VI gene (“ORF”) or gene deletion mutants (“ORFΔ”) in mating-competent (“STE⁺”) or the indicated sterile mutant strain background. Values represent reporter transcription activities expressed as ratios, where activity of the unstimulated WT equals 1.0. Complete data for sst2Δ have been published elsewhere (105).
