Differential Expression of Anthocyanin Biosynthetic Genes in Relation to Anthocyanin Accumulation in the Pericarp of Litchi Chinensis Sonn
Figure 5
Effects of ABA and CPPU on pigmentation and expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes.
A) difference in fruit color and anthocyanin concentration in pericarp of ‘Feizixiao’ treated with ABA and CPPU; B) effects of ABA and CPPU on the expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes in the pericarp cv. Feizixiao; C) correlations between anthocyanin concentration and expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic genes in pericarp of ‘Feizixiao’. Lcactin gene was used to normalize expression of the genes under identical conditions. The vertical bars represent standard error of three replicates. Relative coefficient r with ‘*’ indicated significantly correlated at the level of P<0.05. Results of ANOVA test are presented in Table S3.
