Figure 4.
(A): Putative bibenzyl biosynthesis pathways and identification of differentially expressed genes involved in bibenzyl biosynthesis. PAL: phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, C4H: trans-cinnamate 4-monooxygenase, P450: cytochrome P450s, 4CL: 4-coumarate-CoA ligase 1,2-like, and BBS: bibenzyl synthase (or bibenzyl synthase-like). (B): Changes in the expression of the identified DEGs involved in bibenzyl biosynthesis. CT signifies the control group, while MJ signifies the treated group. Yellow or blue represents up-regulation or down-regulation, respectively, and black represents the genes at background levels. Scale bar represents fold changes of DEGs expression.
