Leaf Proteome Analysis Reveals Prospective Drought and Heat Stress Response Mechanisms in Soybean

Figure 12

Protein-protein interaction network predictions made by bioinformatics analysis. The prediction is between differentially expressed proteins due to different stress conditions and identified by proteomic study. The network comprises 46 nodes and 139 edges. Symbol color corresponds to degree of interactions (color code on the left side). Symbol shapes indicate specific protein function. Node legends indicate the spot number corresponding to the particular protein spot from 2D-DIGE gel. Follow Table 1 for protein names for corresponding spot number [note: duplicate insertion of few spot numbers (Spot numbers 33, 62, 63, 66, and 87) is incorporated to avoid overcrowding of the network. Spot number 80 appears two times with two different shapes indicating that the same protein is counted for two different functions].
