Gene models: v1.6

Description: Generation of a transcriptome atlas covering most phases in the life cycle of the model bryophyte P. patens, including detailed sporophyte developmental progression (Each experiment has 3 replicates). The processed data from Ortiz-Ramirez et al., 2016 (RMA normalized) were scaled to a median value of 12.

Figure 1. Sporophyte developmental stages

Abb.	Developmental stage	Description
E1	Embryo 1:	Developing embryo; the upper, chloroplast rich half will develop into the spherical, spore-containing spore capsule, whereas the lower part will connect to the gametophore for nourishment of the developing sporophyte.
E2	Embryo 2:	Elongated embryo without developed stomata. Connection between gametophore and sporophyte still loose but cells started to differentiate.
ES	Early sporophyte:	Stomata are developed, clear separation of capsule (inflation) and developing seta (2n).
PM	Premeiotic sporophyte:	Spherical green translucend sporophyte containing spore mother cells (2n), seta starts to turn brownish.
M	Meiotic sporophyte:	Opaque green sporophyte containing tetrades which will later form each four spores (1n, meiosis occured).
Y	Yellow sporophyte:	Contains early spores of the final size covered by a plasma membrane, seta darkend during the maturation process.
LB	Light brown sporophyte:	Spores started to mature, the spore wall thickens by exine deposition.
B	Brown sporophyte:	Spores are mature, spore wall consists of a thick perine layer with spikes, exine, seperating layer and intine, sporophyte detaches easily.

The next figures represent the available samples in this data set. The color in the colored part of the figures below will be replaced by the expression color (from the white-yellow-orange-red color scale) when using the Expression Viewer.
