Expression of differentially expressed genes including (a) IaAF-1, (b) IaPal-1, (c) IaCom, (d) IaCad, (e) IaPmd, (f) IaCslp, (g) IaPp29, (h) IaSus, and (i) IaSus6 involved in starch and sucrose metabolism and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis during heat stress. Samples were taken from plants before the heat stress treatment (0 h) and after the heat stress treatment (6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 36 h, 48 h and 96 h), respectively. Gene expression was measured by RT-qPCR with the water spinach U6 gene used as an internal control to normalize the expression data. The bars represent the standard deviation from three independent experiments with three replicates each. The statistical analyses were conducted in the same variety at different time points and different letters were used to indicate the significant differences among samples
