Relative expression levels of carotenoid biosynthetic genes in transgenic tomato. Gene expression from tomato pericarps (A) and sepals (B) at the Br+5 stage of fruit development is shown. WT, The wild type; Ox-61, Ox-62, and Ox-65, three independent CsMADS6-overexpressing lines. The name of the pertinent gene is indicated for each set of bars. Data are represented as means ± sd from three replicates. Asterisks indicate significant differences relative to the control by one-way ANOVA tests (*, P < 0.05 and **, P < 0.01).
