Figure 5.
Expression of miR172 putative target genes at various stages of the avocado, mango, and macadamia life cycle. Relative expression was determined by qRT-PCR in leaves of (A) PaAP2, (B) MciAP2, (C) MiAP2, (D) PaRAP2.7a, (E) PaRAP2.7b, (F) MiRAP2.7a, and (G) MiRAP2.7b. Error bars represent standard error of the mean (n = 3 biological pools of 6–15 plants), and significant differences calculated by one-way ANOVA are shown by different letters (p < 0.05).
