Expression patterns of differentially expressed seed dormancy-related genes during seed dormancy release and seedling establishment. A Hierarchical clustering. Red and blue represent increased and decreased transcript abundances, respectively. The 12 main subclusters are indicated at the branching points (left side). B Statistics of the DEGs in Clusters 1–12. The numbers of up-regulated DEGs (red) and down-regulated DEGs (green) in the Corm vs Seed, Str_S vs Corm, and Eme vs Str_S comparisons are listed in each subcluster. The numbers in parentheses refer to the number of DEGs exclusive to P. sibiricum MD release, PD release, and the seedling establishment after the MPD release. C Venn diagram presenting the number of shared or unique seed dormancy-related genes differentially expressed in the Corm vs Seed, Str_S vs Corm, and Eme vs Str_S comparisons
