Figure 1From: Computational annotation of genes differentially expressed along olive fruit developmentOlive fruit growth and developmental stages considered for SSH library construction. (A) Olive fruit (cv Leccino) growth curve expressed as fresh weight (g) accumulation. Pericarp was sampled at initial fruit set (stage 1, 30 days after flowering, DAF), end of pit hardening (stage 2, 90 DAF), and veraison (stage 3, 130 DAF). (B) Suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) libraries were constructed by comparing samples collected at stages 1 and 2 (libraries A and B), and at stages 2 and 3 (libraries C and D). For the two forward libraries A and C, cDNA from samples collected at stages 1 and 2, respectively, were used as tester and cDNA from stages 2 and 3, respectively, were used as drivers, vice versa for the reverse subtractive libraries B and D.Back to article page
