Figure 2.

Differentially accumulated proteins identified by comparing embryogenic (EC) vs. non-embryogenic (NEC) cultures from Hass and Criollo avocado varieties. (A) The Venn diagram displays the number of differentially expressed proteins identified in Hass and Criollo cultures by comparing EC vs. NEC. (B) Core proteome representation-based gene ontology enrichment and clustering of biological process annotation (Data S2, C). Correlation between relative gene expression and protein abundance. The gene expression was normalized using Rubisco as an internal control. Points denote the mean fold expression as compared to the control ± three replicates of EC and NEC cultures of avocado cultivars “Hass” and “Criollo”. Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase 1 (PAL, AT2G37040), flavanone 3-hydroxylase (F3H, naringenin 2_oxoglutarate 3-dioxygenase, AT3G51240), Chalcone flavonone isomerase 1 (CHI1, AT3G55120), probable chalcone-flavonone isomerase 3 (CHI3, AT5G05270).
