From: A cadmium stress-responsive gene AtFC1 confers plant tolerance to cadmium toxicity
Differentially expressed genes in the wild-type (Col-0) and fc1 mutants of Arabidopsis under Cd stress. Two week-old Arabidopsis seedlings were exposed to 0 (−Cd) and 50 μM Cd (+Cd) in the half-strength Hoagland solution. a: Distribution and expression levels of DEGs in WT and fc1 mutant seedlings with or without Cd exposure. The x axis represents the log2 fold change under the mean normalized expression of all transcripts (y axis). Green dots indicate the down-regulated genes, and red dots show the up-regulated genes. b: Heatmap of a one-dimensional hierarchical clustering of differential gene expression as determined by mRNA-seq for the Cd-exposed (+Cd) seedlings (WT and fc1) relative to the control (−Cd). c: Venn diagram showing up- and down-regulated genes in Col-0 and fc1 mutant seedlings under Cd stress. d Venn diagram showing up- and down-regulated genes in fc1 seedlings relative to Col-0 grown under the control (–Cd) and Cd-exposed (+Cd) condition.
