Figure 10. Symmetric matrix of p-values of the t-test between
the ENC values of the Hsp60 genes from 17 phyla. The statistically
indistinguishable ENC values of Hsp60 genes of the two phyla, having a
t-test with a p-value greater than 0.05, are marked in black.
Statistically different ENC values of the Hsp60 genes of the two phyla,
having a t-test with a p-value less than 0.05, are marked in white. The
black frames and the “Cluster” X-axis represent the four clusters and
their numbers (Roman numerals). Clustering was carried out using the
UPGMA algorithm.
According to the results of the t-test (Supplementary, ENC (t-test
results)), the ENC values of Hsp60 genes of 14 phyla (cluster I) are
statistically indistinguishable (Figure 10). In turn, the ENC values for
Actinobacteria (cluster II), Streptophyta (cluster III), and
Proteobacteria (cluster IV) are statistically different from all other
phyla. It can be assumed that the expression level of Hsp60 genes from
Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria is high (34.8 and 31.6, respectively),
while the expression level of the Hsp60 genes from Streptophyta is close
to low (51.6). It should be noted that more accurate conclusions about
the level of Hsp60 gene expression should be made based on the results
obtained by conventional laboratory methods.
