Figure 3.

(a) rbcL homoeolog expression and (b) rbcS homoeolog expression in C. hystrix (HH), C. × hytivus (HHCC), and Cucumis sativus (CC). The expression of rbcL and rbcS genes was analyzed in three biological replicates by qRT-PCR and RNA-seq, respectively. H subgenome (black, female parent), C subgenome (white, male parent). Data represents the mean ± standard deviation (SE) (n = 3). The different lower-case letters above the bars show the means are significantly different according to Duncan’s multiple range test at 5% level.
