Transcriptional activity of A. act. alone and in co-culture with S. mutans. Heatmaps show relative gene expression of A. act. after 8 and 24 h of biofilm growth in dual species biofilms with S. mutans compared with the expression in single-species biofilms (left two columns) or after 6, 8, 10, 12 and 24 h of biofilm growth in dual species biofilms compared with gene expression at 4 h (right five columns). Selected genes are grouped according to function in panel a-e and ordered based on their position in the A. act. chromosome
