Overlap between the effect of light and carS mutation in the transcriptome of F. fujikuroi. a-b Venn diagrams of F. fujikuroi genes activated or repressed by light or by the carS mutation. The effect of the carS mutation was corrected with the data of the SG256 complemented strain. c-d Venn diagrams of F. fujikuroi genes activated or repressed by light in the wild type or in the carS mutant SG39. In all the diagrams, the numbers indicate genes that correspond to the conditions mentioned above. The surfaces of the circles are proportional to the numbers of genes. Overlapping areas of the circles correspond to genes that coincide in the conditions compared. The sets of genes activated/repressed by the carS mutation in dark conditions overlap significantly with the sets of genes activated/repressed in the wild type (WT) by light according to p-values < 2.2 × 10^− 16 and odds ratios of 12.18 and 5.03, respectively, calculated using Fisher’s exact test. e Effect of the threshold for expression change in the number of genes activated by light and by the carS mutation. The graph represents the genes activated by any of the two conditions and the coinciding ones. Percentages of coinciding genes are also represented (dotted line)
