  1. (+) indicates more than expected by chance (-) indicates less than expected by chance n.d. = not determined
  2. *denotes values that are not significantly different compared to values expected by chance. All other values are statistically significant (p ≤ 0.05).
  3. †Starvation-induced dataset from Radonjic et al. [3] – other starvation datasets are from Gasch et al. (2000) [1]. Additional information for datasets is provided in Materials and Methods.
