Diurnal expression data from developing barley caryopses

Caryopses of barley (Hordeum vulgare), like all other cereal seeds, are complex sink organs optimized for storage starch accumulation and embryo development. Their development from early stages after pollination to late stages of seed ripening has been studied in great detail. However, information on the caryopses diurnal adaptation to changes in light, temperature and alterations in phloem-supplied carbon and nitrogen remained unknown.
