Fig. 5: Only commensal members elicit a strong host-defensive response.

a, Relative expression (RE) pattern of 2,727 DEGs found in at least one of the comparisons of CommenCom, PathoCom and MixedCom with Control. DEGs were hierarchically clustered. b, Euler diagram of DEGs in PathoCom-, CommenCom- and MixedCom-treated plants compared with Control (log2[fold change] >|± 1|; false discovery rate (FDR) <0.05; two-tailed Student’s t-test followed by Benjamini–Hochberg correction). c, Overrepresented GO terms in upregulated DEG subsets: CommenCom and MixedCom intersection (189 DEGs), CommenCom unique (630 DEGs) and MixedCom unique (1,370 DEGs). Only the top ten non-redundant GO terms are presented; for the full lists of overrepresented GO terms and expression data, see Supplementary Table 5, Supplementary Table 6 and Supplementary Data 1. d, Expression values of six defence marker genes. Mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM). Groups sharing the same letter are not significantly different (Tukey-adjusted, P >0.05); n = 4.
