Fig. 4From: Differential physiological, transcriptomic and metabolomic responses of Arabidopsis leaves under prolonged warming and heat shockHeat shock protein and transcription factor analyses under different elevated temperature treatments. Expression levels of (a) ascorbate peroxidase 2 (APX2), (b) heat shock protein 70–3 (HSP70–3), (c) HSP70–9, (d) HSP70–14, (e) HSP90–2, (f) HSP90–3, (g) HSP90–4, (h) HSP22.0, (i) heat shock factor A 1A (HSFA1A), and (j) HSFA2. Each bar represents mean ± SD; n = 3. k Heatmap of 34 differentially expressed transcription factors under control, prolonged warming and heat shock treatments, grouped into 4 main categories. Red rectangles mean up-regulation of expression and blue means down-regulation. l–p The expression levels of several selected transcription factors: (l) HSFA4A, (m) HSFA6A, (n) HSFA6B, (o) DREB2A, and (p) DREB2C were determined using quantitative RT-PCR analyses. Pink bars: results from deep sequencing; blue bars: results from qRT-PCR. Each bar represents mean ± SD; n = 3. CK: control; PW: prolonged warming; HS: heat shockBack to article page
