Expression profiling of BdC genes in different B. distachyon organs detected by qRT-PCR. (A) Comparative expression levels of 10 BdC genes in different Brachypodium distachyon organs, including roots, stems and leaves at the two-leaf stage; seed palea, lemma, flag-leaf at 11, and 23 days after anthesis (DPA). (B) Dynamic expression profiles of 10 BdC genes during seed development in Bd21. Relative quantification of the expression levels in developing caryopses was collected between 6 and 28 DPA. Log transform data was used to create the heatmap. Expression data were obtained from three biological replicates. Differences in gene expression changes are shown in color as the scale.
