Identification of interacting kinases. a Kinases identified from the bioinformatic prediction for three fiber growth-related candidate proteins. The red and gray circles indicate the down- and up-regulated phosphorylation levels for the candidate proteins, respectively. The changes in phosphorylation levels of candidate proteins and mRNA expression of the corresponding kinase genes are shown in b. (whole_GLEAN_10016752 and kinase gene whole_GLEAN_10006524), c. (whole_GLEAN_10023180 and kinase gene whole_GLEAN_10011528), and d. (whole_GLEAN_10023749 and kinase gene whole_GLEAN_10017919). The blue and red columns represent the abundances observed in the barks from the top and middle sections of stems, respectively
