Expression profiles of associated genes in cassava.
Log2 based FPKM change fold values drought stress plants by respective control value were used to create the heat map. The differential expression thresholds of significant up and down regulation were set to 2.0 and -2.0 respectively.

Relative expression verification of 24 selected associated genes by qRT-PCR.
All of the 24 genes were selected according to the significantly differential expression from omics data. * and ** standard for significance of differential expression P<0.05 and P<0.01 respectively which were estimated from relative expression between drought and control treatments by T test. Manes.09G068800 was only expressed in the leaf of SC124 under drought and control conditions.
