Heatmap of defense-related genes throughout nodulation kinetics. (A) The contig identification number and the BLAST definition of 23 genes known to be transiently up-regulated in response to symbionts in model legumes are presented in the table. (B) Behavior of the 23 corresponding orthologs in Aeschynomene. (C) Heatmap of differentially expressed defense-related genes throughout nodulation kinetics. Contigs corresponding to NCR are red, hypersensitive-induced response protein yellow, pathogenesis-related protein grey, MLO-like protein brown, isochorismatase orange, RLK protein dark green, disease resistance protein light green, LRR-containing protein purple, TIR-NBS disease resistance protein in pink, LysM domain containing protein in blue and chitinase in cyan. Red indicates up-regulation and green indicates down-regulation. Chroma color from green to red indicates Log2 (fold change) from less to more.
