VIGS for the SlASR1 gene in tomato fruit (RNAi). (a) 33‐day‐old fruits (MG) after flowering still attached to plant were used for inoculation. The control fruit phenotype inoculated with Agrobacterium containing the TRV only (control). The RNAi fruit phenotype inoculated with Agrobacterium containing TRV carrying a full length of SlASR1 (RNAi‐1,2,3). (b) SlASR1, SlASR2, SlASR3 and SlASR4 transcriptional level was determined by qRT‐PCR in the control and RNAi fruits. SlSAND gene was used as the internal control. Vertical bars represented standard deviations (SD) of means (n = 3). (c) The total anthocyanin content was measured in the control and RNAi fruits. C: control fruit; R: red part of SlASR1‐ RNAi fruit; G: green part of SlASR1‐ RNAi fruit; Asterisks indicated statistically significant differences at P < 0.05 as determined by Student's t‐test.
