Analysis of heme biosynthesis pathway using genome and transcriptome data. This pathway consists of genes that mapped to that of Arabidopsis thaliana col heme biosynthesis I embedded within Plant Metabolic Network database. At the genome level, all ten genes were present whereas only eight genes (labeled with red box) were detected at transcript level for Rafflesia cantleyi. Using our assembled Arabidopsis transcriptome, all ten genes required in this process were retrieved.
