Plot of the log₂ R values of D. alaskensis G20 genes commonly differentially expressed in strain G20 during syntrophic growth irrespective of growth rate and methanogenic partner (“syntrophy-relevant,” 68 genes) (A), only in coculture with M. maripaludis irrespective of growth rate (putatively “M. maripaludis syntrophy-relevant,” 19 genes) (B), and only at a low growth rate irrespective of the methanogenic partner (putatively “low syntrophic growth rate-relevant,” 18 genes) (C). Genes are differently colored according to their COG functional category affiliation (see the legend of Fig. 5 for the definitions of the single-letter code).
