FIGURE 3.
The relative expression levels of genes belonging to the EPS gene cluster between swarming and swimming cells of SM9913 based on transcriptome data. Differentially expressed genes were indicated by the symbol ∗. A gene was regarded as a differentially expressed gene when its | log2(swarming/swimming)|≥ 1 (demarcated by dot lines) and its P ≤ 0.001. Gene PSM_A1273 was not regarded as a differentially expressed gene because its P-value was greater than 0.001.
