Figure 2

Qualitative and quantitative comparison of relative levels of gene expression in the hrpX mutant with respect to the wild-type strain, determined by RNA-seq and microarray methods. (A) Venn diagram showing the qualitative agreement in the log2 fold-change values for expression of 4312 genes by RNA-seq and microarray. (B) Scatter plot showing the relative expression levels of genes in terms of log2FCs, determined by RNA-seq and microarray. Correlation between the two methods is shown by Spearman’s correlation coefficient (rs). (C) Frequency histogram showing the percentage of genes with the fold difference between RNA-seq and microarray, with a bin width of 0.5. The lower panel D, E, and F are same as A, B, and C respectively, but for only those genes that have passed the statistical cut-off threshold (FDR ≤ 5% and absolute log2 fold-change ≥ 0.6).
