Fig 3. Expression profiles of 8 transcripts by qRT-PCR and the correlation of the results between qRT-PCR and RNA-Seq.

Fold changes in the transcript levels of different tissues are shown in Fig 3A. The average expression levels in the plant leaves were set to 1. Error bars represent standard error. L, S and R represent the leaves, stems and roots, respectively. Fig 3B shows the correlation between the qRT-PCR and RNA-Seq expression levels. The X-axis represents log2-fold change in the expression levels found by qRT-PCR. The Y-axis indicates the log2 value of the expression level fold change from RNA-Seq.
