Expression data from Arabidopsis autophagy mutants (atg5 and atg9) and wild type (Col-0)

Autophagy mutants display early yellowing phenotype and major metabolic changes under both ideal and limiting nitrate supplies. We used Affymetrix microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying metabolic and cellular changes in autophagy mutants and wild type Arabidopsis rosettes grown under both low or high nitrate conditions. Fold changes data between mutants and wild type have been published (www.plantcell.org/cgi/doi/10.1105/tpc.114.124677) Three genotypes wild type (Col-0), atg5-3 mutant (SALK_02060) and atg9 (SALK_130796) were grown under high nitrate (HN) for 30 days (T30) or low nitrate LN conditions for 30 days (T30) and 60 days (T60). Two consecutive cultures (C1 and C2) were performed at several month interval. For the two cultures and each genotype, rosettes of >6 plants were harvested and mixed to extract RNA.
