Heatmap representation and hierarchical clustering of StARF genes under abiotic stresses (A), biotic stresses (B), and phytohormone treatments (C). The Illumina RNA-Seq data were obtained from PGSC database, and the relative expression of StARF genes was calculated with respect to control samples using FPKM values of representative transcripts corresponding to StARF genes. Fold changes of StARF expression were log2 transformed, and the normalized expression data was used to generate heatmap with MeV software package using the same parameters in Fig. 4. Color scale below heatmap shows the expression level; red indicates high transcript abundance while green indicates low abundance.
