The gene essentiality score and dependence of gene essentiality on specific media components found in BCS media. a Gene essentiality score based on media derived from BCS recipe. The x-axis lists all genes predicted as essential at least in one media, while the y-axis shows their essentiality score, calculated as the percentage of the media in which they are predicted to be essential. The overlap with experimentally identified genes in BAB broth media is marked in red. b A heat map showing media, in which a given gene was predicted to be essential, in terms of its components. The y-axis lists all genes predicted as essential at least in one media, while the x-axis shows media components. The colored boxes at each x, y location indicate the fraction of media component (x-axis) in all the media where that gene (y-axis) was essential. As shown in the color key, beige (blue) indicates all media, in which a gene was essential, containing (lacking) a specific media component
