Characterization of the Largest Effector Gene Cluster of Ustilago maydis
Figure 2
Expression data compilation for cluster 19A genes and presence of orthologous genes in other smut fungi.
Expression data for cluster 19A genes were compiled from the following sources: a) Gene expressed in young seedlings [14], b) Gene expressed in tassel [14], c) Gene expressed in tumor tissue [12], d) Gene down-regulated in response to b inactivation during biotrophic development [20] and nd) no expression detected. Orthologs in S. reilianum and U. hordei are listed, and in these columns ND indicates that no orthologs were detected at a cut-off of e-value 10e−10. The adopted color scheme corresponds to the scheme used in Figures 1, 3 and 4. Please note that the order of genes was changed in several cases and does not follow the order in cluster 19A (*).
