TABLE 2.

Numbers of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) based on regulation by RsmA2 and RsmA3 in PstDC3000.

	HMM			KB
Groups	Down	Up	Total	Down	Up	Total
[i] Genes synergistically regulated by RsmA2 and RsmA3	80	50	130	21	31	52
[ii] Genes inversely regulated by RsmA2 and RsmA3	10	25	35	249	191	440
[iii] Genes regulated mainly by RsmA2	50	37	87	85	45	130
[iv] Genes regulated mainly by RsmA3	146	632	778	201	252	453

The number of genes was generated from Figure 3. Down and up represent expression in comparisons, i.e., ΔrsmA3 versus PstDC3000, ΔrsmA23 versus PstDC3000, or ΔrsmA23 versus ΔrsmA3. [i] DEGs up-regulated (or down-regulated) simultaneously in all three comparisons. [ii] DEGs inversely expressed in ΔrsmA23 versus ΔrsmA3 and ΔrsmA3 versus PstDC3000; down or up represents expression in ΔrsmA3 versus PstDC3000. [iii] DEGs in ΔrsmA23 versus PstDC3000 and ΔrsmA23 versus ΔrsmA3, but not in ΔrsmA3 versus PstDC3000. [iv] DEGs in ΔrsmA23 versus PstDC3000 and ΔrsmA3 versus PstDC3000, but not in ΔrsmA23 versus ΔrsmA3. HMM: hrp-inducing minimum medium; KB: King’s B medium; PstDC3000: Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000; ΔrsmA3: the rsmA3 mutant; ΔrsmA23: the rsmA2/A3 double mutant.
