Table 3.

Distribution in functional categories of the genes significantly (FDR < 0.05) higher expressed in S. cerevisiae in mixed-culture (Mc) and in single-culture (Sc) fermentations, irrespective of the fermentation stage

k f p-value Category
Sc
 3 7 6.94E−05 Allantoin catabolic process
 2 2 1.64E−04 Urea catabolic process
 11 815 1.62E−03 Transmembrane transport
Mc
 3 17 8.82E−06 Biotin biosynthetic process
 6 110 2.04E−05 Biosynthesis of vitamins, cofactors, and prosthetic groups
 5 98 1.48E−04 Cellular amino acid biosynthetic process
 3 29 4.54E−04 Purine nucleotide/nucleoside/nucleobase anabolism

k represents the number of genes of each category that appears in our experiment. f is the total number of genes in that category and p-value (single hypothesis one-sided P value of the association between the total number of genes and the genes that are differentially expressed)
