Two recently duplicated maize NAC transcription factor paralogs are induced in response to Colletotrichum graminicola infection

Table 1 Maize NAC transcription factors differentially regulated in the interaction with C. graminicola and U. maydis

Linear fold change values (f.c.) of gene expression are given; negative values represent a down regulation. Only fold changes > 2 are displayed. Data were extracted from the microarray analysis of the maize transcriptome [39] and p-values (p-val) were calculated using bioconductor (http://www.bioconductor.org).
