Common and distinct coexpression patterns recognized by eight methods.

<p>Within and across-pathway gene coexpression connectivity patterns when eight gene associated methods were used. Coexpression relationships are viewed as a heatmap between any two of 9 selected pathways that represent stress response and primary metabolism, and wood formation, which are labeled from 1 to 9. 1) abscisic acid biosynthesis (4 genes), 2) aerobic respiration (14 genes), 3) gluconeogenesis (16 gene), 4) glycolysis IV (plant cytosol) (4 genes), 5) glyoxylate cycle (10 genes), 6) IAA biosynthesis I (10 genes), 7) Phenylpropanoid biosynthesis (10 gene), 8) UDP-galactose biosynthesis (5 genes), 9) UDP-D-xylose biosynthesis (7 genes). For each of 81 genes in these 9 pathways, we obtained the top 100 most coexpressed genes to it by performing a genome-wide coexpression analysis in which each of these 81 genes was paired with all other genes in the genome. We plotted all those pairs, in which both genes are one of these 81 genes in any of these 9 pathways.
