Figure 4. Expression of Shell in early oil palm fruit.

Figure 4

Longitudinal sections of 1 WAA Dura fruit (a, b) and cross sections of 5 WAA pisifera fruit (c, d) were hybridized to a pool of two unique Shell locked nucleic acid (LNA) probes (a, c) or to a scrambled sequence LNA negative control probe (b, d). Colorimetric in situ hybridization probe detection is blue and all sections were counterstained red. The scale bar (0.8 mm) shown in panel b applies to all four panels. Structural hallmarks of fruits are indicated by labeled arrows in panels a and c.
