Fig. 1From: Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals the transcriptional alterations in heat-resistant and heat-sensitive sweet maize (Zea mays L.) varieties under heat stressMortality of maize seedlings of different genotypes under heat stress. Maize varieties XT (heat-resistant) and ZF (heat-sensitive) were treated at 42 °C for 6 h, followed by recovery growth at 25 °C for one week. Three independent experimental replicates were analyzed for each sample, and data were indicated as mean ± SE (n = 3). XT: Xiantian 5; ZF: Zhefengtian 2Back to article page
