Genes with increased expression levels in A. subglobosum are shown in bold face and depressed expression levels in marked by asterisk. Parentheses indicates no expression in A. subglobosum. Numbers in parentheses show non-specific genes without expression during growth and development. Genes are shown by DDB_G ID in Additional file 2: Table S4. The complete comparative data are shown in Additional file 2: Table S2.
