 Chlamydomonas reinhardtii CC-1690 was grown in bioreactors. When the cells reached a non-stationary density, the acetate supply was stopped and the medium was kept at 25°C (control) or heated to 35 °C and 40 °C. Additionally to a preheat sample, four further samples were taken as triplicates after 2h, 4h, 8h, and 24h of heat treatment (nopump samples). The samples were analysed with NGS. In [Zhang et al 2022](https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-022-03359-z) samples were taken at the same time points for 35°C and 40°C but with constant nutrient supply (TAP samples).

+_Figure 1: Example of generated figures. **(A)** Exemplary visualization of the normalized counts of the HSP70C transcript. A clear separation of the different temperature kinetics is visible. While the initial level is comparable for all time courses after heat onset of 35°C transcript counts increase strongly while the 25°C signal seems constant. Transcript counts in both 40°C experiments decreased during the first 4 hours of treatment. After 8 hours of heat stress the behaviour of temperature-regulated signals change to medium specific effects. Cells living in low-acetate media show distinct reduction of HSP70C transcripts while TAP-samples settle approximately at prior-heat levels. **(B)** Heatmap representation of (A). **(C)** Transcript signals that belong to the functional term "intraflagellar transport.IFT particle protein.complex B" are visualized as z-scores. Since there was no measurement for TAP-25°C this panel remains empty (lower left). Because z-scores may distort signals that did not change at all, a ANOVA was performed to separate constant transcript from transcripts that showed differential expression within their time courses. Red shadings indicate a global change of the transcript counts. Blue/grey signals can be considered as constant and have less relevance for the shown kinetics. As seen most transcripts show no response at 25°C but show distinct patterns for 35°C and 40°C respectively. The response shape is solely dependent on the applied temperature and is not influenced by the media the cells are grown in. While for 35°C the transcripts show a strong decrease within the first two hours and a strong increase during the last period, for 40°C samples the transcripts remain constant for the first 2 hours and show no strong increase for the last time point._
