Figure 6. BvgR-regulated gene expression in modulated and non-modulated BPSM and BPSMΔRisA.

Rows correspond to array probes. The names and symbols in the left column correspond to the Tohama I Sanger Centre annotation. BPSMΔBvgR vs BPSM corresponds to the ratios between BPSMΔBvgR and BPSM, both cultivated in non-modulating conditions. BPSMΔRisA vs BPSM corresponds to the ratios between BPSMΔRisA and BPSM, both cultivated in non-modulating conditions. BPSM Mg vs BPSM corresponds to the ratios between BPSM cultivated in the presence of 50 mM MgSO₄ and BPSM cultivated in non-modulating conditions. BPSMΔBvgR Mg vs BPSM corresponds to the ratios between BPSMΔBvgR cultivated in the presence of 50 mM MgSO₄ and BPSM cultivated in non-modulating conditions. BPSMΔRisA Mg vs BPSM corresponds to the ratios between BPSMΔRisA cultivated in the presence of 50 mM MgSO₄ and BPSM cultivated in non-modulating conditions. The indicated ratios are the means of all the experiments. Red, increased transcript abundance; green, decreased transcript abundance; black, no significant change in transcript abundance; the level of transcript abundance is defined by the coloured Log₂ scale shown on the right.
