Fig. 4: Salinity-responsive genes from A. marina.

Leaf and root tissues were collected from control (Hoagland’s solution) and salt-treated (Hoagland’s solution supplemented with NaCl) seedlings and salinity-responsive genes were identified by RNA-Seq analysis. a, b Venn diagram of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from A. marina leaves and roots in response to short-term (24, 48 h) and long-term (14d) salinity stress that were analyzed in control-treatment pairs. c, d Time-course analysis and clustering of the DEGs based on their pattern of expression in leaves and roots, respectively.
