Expression analysis of auxin homeostasis genes. Expression analysis (by qPCR) of auxin-conjugating enzyme (GH3) and transport genes (PIN) over fruit development are grouped by hierarchical clustering, normalised to maximum expression of each gene. Five stages of fruit development (0: fruit set, 1: cell division, 2: cell expansion, 3: fruit maturation and 4: fruit ripening) represented by fruit harvested at 0, 14, 45, 90, 132 Days After Full Bloom (DAFB). Asterisks represent primer pairs unable to distinguish between homeologous genes.
