FIG 5.

Sensitive gene set. RPKM values at 0 h NF (postcentrifugation) were set at 100; subsequent percentiles are at 0.5, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 48 h NF. RPKM data for these and additional sensitive genes appear in Table 7. A drop in expression in the cw15 strain occurs at late time points (blue when the 48-h NF value is <40% of the initial value), and a drop in sta6 expression occurs early, with a spike at 24 h NF (green when the 24-h NF value is at least 50% greater than the 48-h NF value). Numbers in parentheses are fold increases in gene expression in response to the boost (maximum RPKM level during the 2 h postboost divided by RPKM level at 48 h NF).
