From: Contrasting gene expression patterns in grain of high and low asparagine wheat genotypes in response to sulphur supply

Fig. 9

Expression levels (FPKM) of genes encoding general control nonderepressible-2 (GCN2) protein kinase in the embryo and endosperm of developing grain from wheat (Triticum aestivum) genotypes Spark and SR3. Plants were grown with sulphur either supplied (+) or withheld (−) and analysed at 14 and 21 dpa. Results for each homeologue are shown separately, as indicated. Gene reference numbers are given in Additional file 2. The increase in expression of all three homeologues in response to sulphur deficiency in SR3 embryos at 21 dpa was significant (p = 0.03114 for the 2AL homeologue, < 0.01 for the 2BL homeologue and 0.01313 for the 2DL homeologue)
