Gene expression studies using qRT-PCR. Relative expression of pyruvate dehydrogenase (MdPDH; MDP0000192364), and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidase (MdACO; MDP0000200896) in the inner cortex (A), and succinate dehydrogenase (MdSDH; MDP0000251581) and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase (MdHMGR; MDP0000312032) in the outer cortex (B) of ‘Braeburn’ apples stored for two, four, or six months under various CA conditions. qRT-PCR values were normalized against the geometrical mean of ubiquitin (MDP0000154072 ) and actin (MDP0000886327). The error bars represent standard deviation of five biological replications. Significance of the mean relative gene expression of each group was tested with Student’s t-test (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01) using the SAS software.
