Figure 2. Phenotype and physiological indices, and related genes expression of wild-type and 35S:FYFL lines.

Figure 2

(A) Leaf phenotype of wild type and transgenic lines after 5 day treatment of ethylene (ET) and the air (Air). (B) Total chlorophyll content of leaves of wild type and transgenic lines before and after 5 day treatment of ethylene (ET) and the air (Air). Leaf phenotype (C) and total chlorophyll content of leaves (D) of wild type and transgenic lines of 120 days old. The leaves next to the first inflorescence. (E) Fruits phenotype of wild-type and 35S:FYFL lines. 20 d–55 d, statistical time starting from the pollination. 35S:FYFL lines displayed 3–5 days delayed fruit ripening and longer and younger sepals than wild type. (F) Total chlorophyll content of different stages sepal of wild-type and transgenic lines. (G) Total carotenoid content of wild-type and 35S:FYFL lines. (H) to (J) respectively represent expression analysis of PSY1, PDS, ZDS in different stages fruits of wild-type and transgenic lines. (K) Fruits storability phenotype of wild-type and transgenic lines. 14 d and 32 d, post-harvest storage time. WT, wild type; OE-1, OE-7, OE-17, different transgenic lines. IMG, immature green fruit; MG, mature green fruit; B, breaker fruit; B + 4, 4 days after breaker fruit; B + 7, 7 days after breaker fruit; B + 14, 14 days after breaker fruit. The data represent mean from three replicates with three biological repeats. *, indicate P < 0.05, **, indicate P < 0.01 between the wild type and others by t-test. Error bars indicate SE.
