Supplementary Figure S1. Regulation of GA- and ABA-related transcripts by cold stratification of Arabidopsis thaliana seeds.
(A) Important steps in gibberellin (GA) and abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis, degradation and signaling. ZEP = zeaxanthin epoxidase, NCED = nine-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase, SDR1/ABA2 = short-chain dehydrogenase reductase, AAO = abscisic aldehyde oxidase, CYP707A = ABA 8'-hydroxylase.
(B) and (C) The transcript level ratios 4 ºC / 22 ºC for GA- and ABA-related genes calculated from seeds incubated for 96 h in darkness (Yamauchi et al., 2004), data are available via the seed-specific eFP-browser at www.bar.utoronto.ca (Winter et al., 2007; Bassel et al., 2008).
