Cluster analysis reveals clusters of STATc-regulated genes. (A) Shared genes of Fig. 4 were clustered with GeneSpring 7.2. Eight major clusters (1–8) can be distinguished of which clusters 4 and 7 contain those genes that are solely regulated by STATc. The dendrogram is displayed on the left. The differentially regulated genes are depicted as coloured lines. The colour represents the fold of induction (red) or repression (blue) (colour scale see Fig. 3). Non-regulated genes are displayed in yellow. OP1: Osmostress induced pathway 1; OSP: Osmostress induced STATc pathway; SP: STATc pathway irrespective of osmostress. (B) GO biological process terms enriched in cluster 4 and 7. GO tree levels are shown on the left. Bar lengths represent the fold enrichment (scale x-axis). The table indicates the number of genes with a particular annotation in the cluster (List), on the entire array (Total), the significance for enrichment (P-value) and the annotation.
