Fig. 2: Expression and function of the P. terrestris DEGs-encoding for transporters.

On the left are represented heatmap and clustering analyses based on the gene expression changes, reported as log₂FC, of the DEGs-encoding transporters of P. terrestris during dual interaction with the host M. domestica (a), and during tritrophic interaction with the fungus P. expansum and host M. domestica. b On the right it is represented the predicted function of the P. terrestris DEGs encoding transporters of nitrogen sources (red), sugars (blue), organic acids (orange), microelements (fuchsia), and drugs (light blue); in purple are represented transporters with unknown function or underrepresented group (e.g., only one DEG). The predicted function of the DEGs encoding transporters is based on comparison with S. cerevisiae orthologs where possible, with the existing information of other fungal orthologs, and with the P. terrestris genome annotation available.
