From: Growth of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis in human plasma: impacts on virulence and metabolic gene expression

Figure 3

Medium- and temperature-dependent differential expression of genes harbored by the Y. pseudotuberculosis virulence plasmid pYV. Significant (p < 0.05) upshifts (yellow to red scale) or downshifts (blue scale) in individual gene transcription levels when bacteria were grown in human plasma versus LB (triangles) and/or at 37°C versus 28°C (squares) are indicated by the color scale bar. Only genes spotted on the macroarray (56 out of 99 pYV-borne genes) are shown and those encoding the secretion apparatus and Yop effectors are represented by grey and black boxes, respectively. Mean fold changes in transcription and p-values are indicated in Table 3.
