Table S1 lists genes that were included in the different modules in Figure 2c. Table S2 lists GO annotations for genes that are induced during the first 15 minutes of spore germination. Table S3 lists GO annotations for genes that are repressed during the first 15 minutes of spore germination. Table S4 lists GO annotations for the two sub-groups of genes related to the G1/S module that are presented in Figure 9. Table S5 lists the yeast strains used in the present study. Table S6 lists PCR primers used in this study. Table S7 includes the composition of the media used in the present study.

Additional data file 2:

Figure S1 shows mating of germinating cells before the appearance of their first buds. Figure S2 shows Cdc10-GFP protein localization in resting spores and at the beginning of spore germination. Figures S3 and S4 demonstrate that the usage of different normalization methods does not significantly affect the results presented in this paper.
