Number of induced and repressed genes in the stationary phase (3d post-inoculation) compared to the exponential phase (1d post-inoculation), classified by metabolic function. In blue and orange: induced and repressed genes, respectively. Differential comparison of groups (each containing three repetitions) were performed gene by gene using a modified t-test. Genes were declared as being differentially expressed (DE) with a P value adjusted ≤0.05
