Table 3. Distribution of induced and repressed genes among lineage specificity cohorts and chromosomal locations.
Number of genes | Differentially expressed | UP' (observed) | DOWN' (observed) | UP' (expected) | DOWN' (expected) | χ2 | p | |
Aspergillus core | 5095 | 965 | 414 | 551 | 482.5 | 482.5 | 19.45 | <0.0001 |
Affc-core | 6907 | 1468 | 791 | 677 | 734 | 734 | 8.853 | 0.0029 |
Affc-specific | 180 | 64* | 54 | 10 | 32 | 32 | 30.25 | <0.0001 |
Afu-specific | 428 | 135* | 77 | 58 | 67.5 | 67.5 | 2.674 | 0.102 |
Chi-square analysis (with one degree of freedom) was used to test the distribution of induced and repressed genes with respect to lineage specificity and sub-genomic locations, based upon the null hypothesis that equal numbers of induced and repressed genes occur in each cohort. Asterisked gene populations are listed in Supplementary Table S5.
