Figure 7.

The auxin transduction pathway is depressed in the early developmental stages and activated at the late stage in the pw mutant. (A) Heatmaps represent the expression of the 20 DEGs in auxin pathway in the pw and WT lines at DAF 20. (B) Heatmaps represent the expression of the nine DEGs in auxin pathway in the pw and WT lines at DAF40. (C) Heatmaps represent the expression of the 14 DEGs in auxin pathway in the pw and WT lines at DAF 60. In the heatmap, gene expression was scaled using the Z-score of FPKM (mean value of three biological replicates). For each heatmap, the key is located at right side with FPKM values increasing from blue to red.
