Clustering of flax phenylpropanoid genes according to their expression profile in different organs and stress conditions. a the k-means medians clustering function from the TIGR MultiExperiment Viewer (TM4 Mev v4.8.1) was used to cluster the genes according to their expression profiles. The distance metric was Pearson correlation and the default parameters were used for the k-means calculation. The expression profiles are represented as heat maps. The colour code and expression range in log2 values are represented on top of the figure. b the biosynthetic pathway leading to monolignol production and further to H, G and S units is summarized. Three expression ratios are indicted as heat maps beside the genes. C: control; CL: continuous light; DEHYD: drought stressed stems; IT: internal stem tissues; L: leaf; MeJA: methyljasmonate; OT: outer stem tissues; R: root; S; stem; SA: salicylic acid
