The data were generated by Hancock et al. (2014) and the values shown are the mean normalized expression values of 16 replicates ± standard error. Comparison of the 22/16° and 30/20°C temperature regimes is shown as a percentage difference. Statistical analysis was performed using Student t-test and significance of differences are indicated (

^*P < 0.05,

^**P < 0.01,

^***P < 0.001).
