Extensive Adaptive Changes Occur in the Transcriptome of Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus) in Response to Incubation with Human Blood
Figure 2
Principal component analysis (PCA) plot showing transcriptome differences between expression microarray data of GBS strain NEM316 strain incubated in human blood at 37°C and 40°C.
Samples were analyzed at time 0, and after 30 min and 90 min of incubation. The PCA plot captures the variance in a dataset in terms of principal components and displays the most significant of these on the x, y, and z axes. The percentages of the total variation that are accounted for by the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd principal components are shown on the x-, y- and z-axes labels. Plots are colored by temperature of incubation and shaped by time point. Elipses circled plot each time point.
