Figure 3From: Replication-biased genome organisation in the crenarchaeon SulfolobusDistribution of expression for genes within indicated intervals of distance to nearest replication origin in exponential phase cultures of S. acidocaldarius. Fifty percent of the data points reside within boxes, 75% within whiskers, and medians are indicated by horizontal lines within boxes (open circles indicate individual genes). Gene expression was significantly negatively correlated with distance to nearest origin (Spearman rank-order correlation, ρ = -0.41; P < 10-15 calculated on individual genes).Back to article page
