Figure 3.

Comparative analysis of plastid transcriptomes in cucumber. Gene expression fold change in flowers is presented relative to expression level in leaves. For each gene, an average signal from all probes targeting this gene is reported. Genes are grouped according to their function. A - only results with statistical significance (average p-value of all the probes per gene < 0.05) are presented. B - all gene expression data are displayed on the chloroplast metabolic pathway diagram. Expression changes transformed to logarithmic values are displayed in colors, according to the red-blue scale.
