Dear all,

I have a basic question.

I have constructed gene regulatory network for a bacterial pathogen based on expression data.

In resulted network high degree of co-expression was observed between TFs and their corresponding targets.

Can I come to this conclusion that as a result of such a considerable co-expression this bacterial species can better adapt to harsh conditions and can out-compete other bacterial species in for example co-infections?

I will appreciate any explanation
