Fig. 1

The transcription profiles of genes from wheat Hsf family in both leaves (L) and roots (R) of the advanced developmental period under the normal conditions and heat stress (HS). A heatmap was drawn to illustrate the relative expression profiles of 80 TaHsfs by TBtools version0.66831. Different colours correspond to log2 transformed values. Red or blue indicates higher or lower relative abundance of each transcript in each sample, respectively. Seedlings of wheat Cang 6005 were grown in the greenhouse with 22 °C/18 °C (day/night), 16 h/8 h photoperiod/dark and 50% humidity for the whole life. The flag leaves and roots were sampled at 60 min and 90 min respectively after heat treatment at anthesis stage (Feekes 10.5.2) and the following 10 days (10d AA), 20 days (20d AA) and used for RNA-Seq analysis. Pooled samples of total 50 individual plants from three pots were collected for each group respectively, and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen for RNA extraction
