Transcriptomic profiling of genes predicted to be involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates by bifidobacteria in response to the different bi- associations. (A) The heat-map of transcriptional profiling of genes up-regulated in B. bifidum PRL2010 when this strain was co-cultivated with B. adolescentis 22L on starch-based medium. (B) The heat-map representing the transcriptional profiling of genes up-regulated in B. bifidum PRL2010 and in B. breve 12L when they were grown in bi-association on starch-based medium. (C) The heat-map representing the transcriptional profiling of genes up-regulated in B. bifidum PRL2010 and B. breve 12L when they were co-cultivated on xylan-based medium. (D) The heat-map representing the transcriptional profiling of the up-regulated genes in B. bifidum PRL2010 when was co-cultivated with B. thermophilum JCM1207 on xylan-based medium. Colors (black to green) represent the average signal intensity.
