Expression data of QK mutant and wild type of Arabidopsis after heat shock

In order to study the importance of HSFA1 in thermotolerance in Arabidopsis, we generated the HSFA1a, b, d and e quadruple mutant (QK). QK is very sensitive to heat. Therefore, we used microarray to study how many genes regulated by HSFA1 after heat shock. Seven-day-old seedlings of Col-0, Ws and QK grown at 22oC on 0.5x MS plates containing 1% sucrose were incubated for 1 h at 37 °C. Subsequently, samples were collected for RNA extraction. The experiment was repeated, and two biological replicates were processed for analysis.
