Fig. 4From: Transcriptional response of Bacillus megaterium FDU301 to PEG200-mediated arid stressChanges in the expression of genes of B. megaterium FDU301 under normal and arid conditions. The transcription levels of selected genes were determined by transcriptomic analysis and RT-qPCR. a: Oxidative stress-responsive genes and Fe2+ transportation-related genes, b: Ectoine biosynthesis-related genes, c: Sporulation-related genes, d: TipA, e: Oxidative phosphorylation-related genes, f: Glycolysis-related genes. FC: fold of change in the transcriptional level in the simulated arid condition (LB medium with 15% PEG200, w/w) comparing to normal LB mediumBack to article page
