Comparison between chimera-associated differential genes and facultative cheater genes. (A) Venn diagram compares the chimera-associated differential genes identified on the D. discoideum microarray and the facultative cheater mutants revealed by previous mutant screen studies [20]. The pink circle represents genes significant in the C and C × T terms of the ANOVA model, and the blue circle represents previously-identified facultative cheater genes. (B) PAM cluster analysis on the 60 genes that overlap between our study and previous mutant screen studies. Expression of these genes cluster into three groups. X-axis represents time, and y-axis represents the difference of M in chimera vs. in clone, where M = log2(Cy3/Cy5 signal intensity). Grey lines in each panel represent trajectories of expression of every gene in the cluster, and dark red lines represent the median gene expression trajectory of the cluster. The numbers of genes in each cluster are listed in the upper left corner of each panel.
