FIGURE 3

Venn diagram of differentially expressed genes between mycelia and spherules for each strain, respectively. Diagram shows genes that change expression in spherules compared to mycelia for the wild-type and mutant strain. Genes were included if expression was significantly (FDR p < 0.05) up-regulated (solid oval) or down-regulated (striped oval) twofold or more. Of interest are 259 gene transcripts that in the mutant deviate from the pattern of the wild-type parent: 19 genes up-regulated in the wild-type parasitic lifecycle and down in the mutant, 18 down-regulated in the wild-type parasitic lifecycle and up in the mutant, and 222 up regulated only in the wild-type lifecycle. Of these 259 genes, the asterisk (*) indicates that seven are unique to Coccidioides.
