Transcriptional analysis reveals stage specific expression of numerous predicted secondary metabolite loci during infection. Numbers in parentheses indicate cluster number from this study (Table 1). Transcriptional values (y-axis) are average fragments per kilobase for each gene per million fragments (FPKM), with the Ensemble gene identifier numbers given. Data were taken from Rudd and colleagues Additional file 3: Table S3 ([6]). In this study, RNA samples were isolated from Czapek-Dox broth (CDB), potato dextrose broth (PDB), and from various days post inoculation in a virulence assay of IP0323 on ‘Riband’ wheat cultivar. We identified co-expressed contiguous loci using the FunGeneClusterS web interface [26]
