Extended Data Figure 7: Expression of lignin biosynthesis genes in wild-type, med5a/5b, ref8-1 and med5a/5b ref8-1 plants.
From: Disruption of Mediator rescues the stunted growth of a lignin-deficient Arabidopsis mutant

Shown is the expression of general phenylpropanoid and lignin biosynthesis genes in 3-week-old rosettes of plants of the indicated genotypes as determined using high-throughput sequencing of mRNA. The value shown on the y-axis refers to the number of reads unambiguously mapping to each gene, normalized for differences in the total number of reads between samples and for lane effects. *P < 0.05, difference from wild type, as determined by the DESeq algorithm using a Benjamini–Hochberg procedure to adjust for multiple testing.
