RNA Seq Count Data distribution after TMM normalization of the entire genome compared to the data distribution for the transportome. ‘Exp’: data sampled in the exponential phase, ‘Stat’: data samples in the stationary phase and ‘Met’: data sampled very late in the growth stage where the assembled SLs are the sole carbon source left. The horizontal line within the box represents the median, the lower and upper boundary of the box represent the first and third quantile respectively. Whiskers above and below the box extend to the most extreme data point which is no more than 1.5 times the interquantile range. Outliers beyond this range are represented by diamonds
