Figure 4From: Effects of silencing key genes in the capsanthin biosynthetic pathway on fruit color of detached pepper fruitsPhenotype changes in pepper fruits with Crtz gene silencing via VIGS. (a) The fruit on the 35th DAA when it is still in the green mature stage; (b) WT-fruit: the phenotype of fruits that were not injected with the TRV vector carrying the Crtz gene after fruits were kept in growth chambers for 15d; (c) TRV/00: the phenotype of fruits that were injected with the TRV empty vector fruit after fruits were kept in growth chambers for 15d; and (d) TRV/Crtz: the phenotype of fruits that were injected with the TRV vector carrying the Crtz gene after fruits were kept in growth chambers for 15d.Back to article page
