From: Transcriptomic profiling of Burkholderia phymatum STM815, Cupriavidus taiwanensis LMG19424 and Rhizobium mesoamericanum STM3625 in response to Mimosa pudica root exudates illuminates the molecular basis of their nodulation competitiveness and symbiotic evolutionary history

a-b. Venn diagram of DEG orthologs among the 3 rhizobia (a) and their circular representation (b). On Venn diagram (a), numbers in black indicate the orthologs between bacterial genomes (at intersect) or their specific gene set. Numbers in colors indicate the number of up-regulated genes (red) or downregulated genes (green) among the orthologs at each intersection of the Venn diagram. Numbers in purple indicate gene orthologs regulated in opposite direction between strains. The circular representation (b) was made with RCircos and represent the bacterial replicons (outer circles), their up (red) and down (green) root exudate-regulated genes (log2(fold change) values), as well as links between co-regulated orthologs (green links, between all three rhizobia; blue lines between BP and CT (beta-rhizobia); red links between RM-BP; pink lines: RM-CT). Note the high number of blue lines depicting the high number of shared regulated genes between beta-rhizobial orthologs, while few were shared by all (green links) or between RM-CT and BP-RM (pink and red links)
