Figure 3From: Reciprocity between abscisic acid and ethylene at the onset of berry ripening and after harvestThe expression of VvNCED1, VvCYP1, VvGT and VvβG1 genes during grape berry growth and ripening of Muscat Hamburg ( Vitis vinifera L.). Real time RT-PCR was performed on total RNA isolated from pulp collected in the 2007 seasons. VvACT was used to standardize each reaction run with respect to RNA integrity, sample loading, and inter-PCR variations. Expression of each gene is presented as relative fold change. Values presented are means ± SE (n ≥ 3).Back to article page
