Figure 5. RNA-sequencing analysis of pyruvate dehydrogenase gene family and silencing of PDHE1α by VIGS in the fruit.

(A) RNA-sequencing analysis of pyruvate dehydrogenase gene family. (B,C) Twenty large green fruit were used for treatment and control tests, respectively. One week after inoculation, phenotypes were observed for the control fruit (B) and RNAi fruit (C), respectively. (D) SqRT-PCR analysis of the transcripts of PDHE1α in receptacles of control fruit and RNAi fruit. Actin was used as a reference gene.
