This study presents the validation of microarray results through qRT-PCR for selected genes in Bacillus cereus, specifically comparing expression levels under swarming (sw) versus non-swarming (non-sw) conditions. The relative expression values are shown as mean numbers ± standard deviations. Notably, the Pearson correlation coefficient (R) between microarray and qRT-PCR data was found to be 0.997 (P = 0.0002), demonstrating a strong correlation between the two techniques. The key genes analyzed include plcR (BC5350) and various hbl genes (BC3101, BC3102, BC3103, BC3104).
