Figure 1. Polygenic cis-regulatory evolution among yeast species in galactose metabolic genes.
a) Tree of Saccharomyces species studied here18. b) Ratios of expression between the indicated species and S. cerevisiae, of the indicated galactose metabolism gene during culture in glucose medium6. Total, expression measured in purebred species; cis, expression from the indicated species’ allele in a diploid hybrid between this species and S. cerevisiae, reflecting effects of cis-regulatory divergence.
