TF families with significant number of member genes upregulated in seeds of SN and LGR. TFs with log₂fc ≥ 2 in any of the five seed developmental stages of SN and LGR were grouped into families. Those with ≥ 5 members in at least one stage were considered significant and their numbers represented diagrammatically for SN (left panel) and LGR (right panel). Families with at least three members in early (S1 and S2) than later stages (S3-S5), and vice versa, and showing genotype-preference (pattern seen only in SN or LGR) have been marked with red and blue arrows, respectively. For instance, MADS has been marked with red arrow as it has 25 and 22 genes in SN S1 and S2, respectively, while there are 18, 14, and 9 genes in SN S3, S4, and S5, respectively. However, in LGR, it has 16 and 17 genes in S1 and S2, respectively, while 16, 13, and 14 genes in S3, S4, and S5, respectively. TF families with ≥ 5 members in one genotype only have been marked in red boxes. PHD TF family with opposite pattern, i.e., minimum number of members in SN S3 stage and maximum in LGR S3 stage, has been marked with asterisks. The sizes of the boxes are proportional to the number of TF encoding genes in a seed developmental stage as denoted by the scale at the bottom
