Real-time PCR analysis of selected DEGs in Sagittaria peach and Big Top nectarine during cold storage treatment at 1° (A, C, E, G) and 5 °C (B, D, F, H) at 0, 1, 5, 7, and 14 d followed by 36 h recovery at ambient temperature (22 °C). Relative expression (2^−ΔCt): (A) and (B) Glycosyl hydrolases family 18; (C) and (D) Late Embryogenesis Abundant (plants) LEA-related; (E) and (F) Pathogenesis related protein BET v I family, (G) and (H) Dehydrin. Different letters indicate significant differences among cultivars considering all time points. Statistical analyses were performed using Two-way ANOVA and Tukey's ranked test (P < 0.05). Data are the mean ± SE; n = 3.
