Fig. 4. Dauer expression of glyoxylate pathway genes. The glyoxylate pathway genes show increased expression in dauers. Red lettering and boxes refer to genes that are dauer enriched (P<0.01) when comparing dauers at 0 hours with dauers at 12 hours. The corresponding red arrows imply increased levels of enzymatic activity that has not been experimentally verified. Green lettering and boxes refer to genes and enzymatic steps that are downregulated (P<0.01) when comparing dauer at 0 hours to dauer at 12 hours. Black lettering in gray boxes indicates no significant difference in expression. The magnitude of induction or repression for each gene is indicated. Some key metabolic intermediates are shown.
