From: Transcriptomics of shading-induced and NAA-induced abscission in apple (Malus domestica) reveals a shared pathway involving reduced photosynthesis, alterations in carbohydrate transport and signaling and hormone crosstalk

Figure 5

Expression of genes related to ethylene biosynthesis and signaling as determined by RT-qPCR. Left column, Gene expression in fruit abscission zone (FAZ) from 'Golden Delicious' apple trees after application of NAA and shading. Red lines indicate normalized microarray values (Solid for NAA and dot for shading). Right column, Gene expression in fruit cortex (FC) from 'Golden Delicious' apple trees after application of NAA and shading. The values of transcript levels in the FAZ and FC from control trees were arbitrarily set to 1. The transcript levels were normalized using actin. Results represent the mean (± SE) of three replicates.
