Transcriptomic comparison of plants grown under water-deficit conditions relative to control using a transcriptome-guided approach. (a) Schematic describing the approach taken to filter the Stonebloom and Scheller (2019) de novo assembled transcriptome. (b) Volcano plot representation of the transcripts differentially expressed under drought relative to control conditions. Log2 fold change (x-axis) is plotted relative to log10 adjusted p-value (y-axis). Transcripts upregulated under drought conditions and with an adjusted p-value < 0.01 are shown in red, whereas those downregulated are shown in blue. (c) Box and whiskers expression profile, as denoted by the number of reads mapped to the transcript (read count, y-axis), for the transcript most upregulated under water-deficit conditions (red bar, I25%). The three dots next to each bar represent the three biological replicates for each condition. (d) A similar expression profile for the transcript most down-regulated by water-deficit conditions
