Tissue expression patterns of ACBP family genes in Zea mays. a Hierarchical clustering and classification of the nine ZmACBP genes based on RNA-seq data during development stages. b Tissue-specific expression patterns of the nine ZmACBP genes were in maize root, stem, leaf, silk, immature cob, anther, and kernel (10 DAP) by using Quantitative real-time PCR. The expression levels were normalized to expression levels of maize TUB-ribosylation factor. Data represent mean ± SE of three replicates. Different letters indicate values which departed significantly at the 0.01 among tissues
