RNA-seq data analysis from panicle tissues of MTU1010 and MM11 subjected to reproductive stage drought stress. In response to drought stress, significant (fold change > 2, p < 0.05) differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were categorized into yield, drought and yield under drought genes based on common and unique gene expression. A Volcano plot representing DEGs across the WT and mutant in well-watered (WW) and drought conditions; x-axis shows fold-change (log2) difference in the expression, and y-axis shows the negative log of adjusted p-value for the expression. Non-significant genes are indicated by grey dots. Red and green color indicates downregulated and upregulated DEGs. ‘n’ indicates total number of significant DEGs. The yellow dot indicates known genes for yield and drought from which few of them were further validated with qPCR expression analysis. B The expression of genes involved in drought-responsive biological processes was compared in MTU1010 and MM11 under well- WW (MTU1010 WW/MM11 WW) and drought (MTU1010 D/MM11 D) conditions. C Significant DEGs were categorized into yield, drought and yield under drought genes based on the overlapping and unique gene expression in mutant under drought as well as well-watered (WW) conditions with respect to MTU1010
