Similarities in gene expression patterns during mycoparasitic interactions presented in a qualitative form of “cluster analysis.” (A) Relative expression ratios of different genes (indicated as ID) before contact (bc) of T. atroviride with P. capsici (TP), B. cinerea (TB), or R. solani (TR) relative to the control (T. atroviride with itself [TT]) before contact. (B) Confrontations of T. atroviride in contact (c) with the host fungi. (C) Expression levels of genes during direct interactions with the host (TP c, TB c, TR c, and TT c) are shown relative to gene expression levels before contact (TP bc, TB bc, TR bc, and TT bc). Results were obtained by RT-qPCR.
