Figure 2. Fold change of transcript levels of genes during heat stress and immediately and 30 minutes after temperature was set back at 25°C that exhibited hysteresis and encoded for heat shock proteins (A), for DNA repair (B) for products involved in protein stabilization (C) or were encoded in plasmids (D).

Down-regulated genes throughout the experiment were associated with non stress specific response such as pathogenesis (E) and motility (F). Genes represented in each plot showed a similar tendency; they are listed by the side of each plot but not differentially represented.
