Fig. 6: Hybrid leaf upregulation of key GO categories implicates Z. pacifica photoperiod regulation.
From: Hybridization and low-light adaptability in California eelgrass (Zostera spp.)
a–c, Hybrid genes associated with the enriched GO categories of GO:0009765 (photosynthesis, light harvesting) (a), GO:0015995 (chlorophyll biosynthetic process) (b) and GO:0009648 (photoperiodism) (c), visualized with normalized log fold change across the experimental time points for the hybrid leaf experiencing low-light stress. The orange box highlights Hap2-pacifica biased overexpression in the photoperiodism group. Gene identity was derived from gene annotations and A. thaliana/O. sativa orthologues. Experimental replicates are clustered on the horizontal axis by transcriptome (Hap1-marina and Hap2-pacifica) and time point (t1 (full light), t2 and t3 (low light), and t4 (full-light recovery)). Gene positional information (for example, chr04.g119180) is given for the Hap1-marina orthologue in cases where multiple gene copies are expressed. The log1p values plotted represent normalized expression values, log-transformed for visualization.
