From: Metabolite profiling and transcriptomic analyses reveal an essential role of UVR8-mediated signal transduction pathway in regulating flavonoid biosynthesis in tea plants (Camellia sinensis) in response to shading

The matrix correlation of transcript abundance of potential genes and TFs involved in flavonoid biosynthesis and different light signal transduction pathways in response to shading treatment. The heatmap was conducted from the FPKM profiles of genes and TFs from transcriptome dataset in tea buds at five time points throughout shading treatments. Correlation factor indicates the correlation of transcriptional expression of two genes (− 1~0, expression of genes are negatively correlated; 0, expression of genes are not correlated; 0~1, expression of genes are positively correlated). Data were conducted from three biological replicates (n = 3), analysed by the Speaman test in SPSS 13.0 software (IBM SPSS Software, https://www.ibm.com/analytics/data-science/predictive-analytics/spss-statistical-software) and visualized by the “pheatmap” package implemented in R (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/pheatmap/index.html)
