Using FPKM value from the database

Question

[shahbaz.ahmed]

Hi,

I'm trying to find an expression pattern for a family of genes and this database lets you downloaded the FPKM value for each gene at different stages, my question is, is there a way to put those FPKM values in the form of figures to show how those particular genes express at different stages of the plant development? I'm not an expert in bioinfo tools but if you guys could put me on the right path, I'll try to learn

You can cluster a matrix to place similar rows (genes) next to one another.

You can then visualize the matrix as a heatmap, sometimes (in R for example) the heatmap function may also perform the clustering.
