Fig. 4From: Whole genome-scale assessment of gene fitness of Novosphingobium aromaticavorans during spaceflightScatterplot of log2-fold change ratio of average effective densities. For each gene, the average effective density of Ground samples was divided by the average effective density of ISS samples and log2 transformed. This was performed for the AI-1 (A) and AI-2 (B) data sets. This data was then plotted by genome position. Genes with ratios above 1 have 2-fold higher effective density in Ground replicates compared to ISS replicates, suggesting transposon insertions in these genes caused reduced fitness in microgravity. The displayed scattered points indicate the 22 outlier genes in the AI-1 and 20 outlier genes in the AI-2.Back to article page
