Transcriptome differences between WT and MaMADS2 repressed banana fruits during ripening. a. Heatmap of the normalized gene expression averages of all samples and hierarchical clustering of all samples. On right the different samples clustered into three groups (I, II and III). The analysis was performed on samples taken from peel (P) and pulp (U) of WT (WT) and repressed lines MaMADS2 antisense (#44) and MaMADS2 RNAi (#32) at harvest/mature green (H), prebreaker (PB), breaker (B) and ripe (R). the color scale shows the distances between different conditions; red show low distance while blue larger distance; b. Number of genes significantly changed (FDR < 0.05) between #32 or #44 lines and WT fruits in peel and pulp in the developmental stages of MG, PB, B and R
