Differential expression was indicated by a log2 fold change in expression of ≥1 and a P value of <0.01. All strains were cultured to log phase at pH 6.5 in 5 mM sodium benzoate, except for the W3110 control culture, which was cultured without benzoate. Boldface without underlining indicates genes upregulated by benzoate in W3110 but knocked down in benzoate-evolved strains (A1-1, C3-1, G5-1, G5-2). Boldface with underlining indicates genes that were downregulated by benzoate in W3110 and that had increased expression in benzoate-evolved strains.
