Figure 2.
Comparison of DEGs between control, ethylene-treated, and 1-MCP-treated kiwifruit. Fruit were treated with 100 μL L−1 ethylene (ETH), 1 μL L−1 1-MCP, or air (control [CK]) for 24 h at 20°C, and comparisons were made at 1 and 4 d. A, DEGs of 13 structural genes with putative function in kiwifruit ethylene biosynthesis, cell wall modification, and starch degradation. B, DEGs of 14 transcriptional factors. There were three replicates at each point. Transcript abundance is indicated by color. The names in black represent new genes, which were not included in the cv Hong Yang genome database; those in blue and red are published structural and TF genes, respectively.
