The forespore line of expression with the identification of the σF and σG regulon.

aA gene is considered differentially expressed when the P value is bWe search for promoters recognized by the different sigma factors active in forespore upstream of the TSS mapped by RNA-seq. These promoters are listed in Table S6. 3 promoters with the −10 and/or −35 elements less conserved are indicated with a question mark.cProteins that are detected associated with the spore by a proteomic approach [39].
