Transcript abundance of flax BGAL genes in various tissues, from previously published microarray data sets (Nimblegen platform). RMA-normalized, average log2 signal values of flax BGALs in various tissues were used to produce a heat map. a: roots (R); leaves (L); outer stem tissues at either the vegetative stage (SOV) or green capsule stage (SOGC); inner stem tissues at either vegetative stage (SIV) or green capsule stage (SIGC); and seeds 10-15 days after flowering (DAF; E1), 20-30 DAF (E2), and 40-50 DAF (E3; [33]). b: internal stem tissues of either the whole stem (WSI), upper stem (USI), middle stem (MSI), or lower stem (LSI); and external (i.e. phloem and cortex enriched) stem tissues of the whole stem (WSE), upper stem (USE), middle stem (MSE), and lower stem (LSE) [34].
