a Schematic illustration of electron cross feeding between S. putrefaciens and R. palustris in the biological LAN with Fe redox communication. Inset heat maps show the differential gene expression presented as Log2 FC value. b A Volcano plot of differentially expressed genes in R. palustris. The threshold of Log2 FC is |0.58| (i.e., FC ≥ |1.5|), and that of P value is <0.05. There were 169 differentially expressed microbial transcripts that met these criteria. c,d Violin plots showing the significant differences in expression of (c) electron transfer related genes (including pilus, c-Cyts, flagellum, PioABC, flavin) and (d) reducing equivalent related genes of R. palustris (including NAD(P)H related proteins). P values were determined by an unpaired two-sided t-test. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
