Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) retrieved from L220, NIL220-3, and NIL220-25 as compared to PH4CV at different germination conditions. (AF) Venn diagram illustrating the up- and downregulated DEGs in L220 (A,B), NIL220-3 (C,D), and NIL220-25 (E,F) as compared to PH4CV at dry seed embryo stage (red cycle), and seedlings germinated at 25 °C for 3 days (blue cycle) and at 10 °C for 15 days (green cycle). (G) Distribution of tolerant line (L220, NIL220-3, and NIL220-25) specifically expressed LTGA genes on the maize genome. Circles from outer to inner showed reference genome (B73, AGPv4), QTLs identified for cold germination in a previous study [31], tolerant line (L220, NIL220-3, and NIL220-25) specifically expressed gene number in the 1 Mb bin region. Positive or negative numbers indicated up- or downregulated genes.
