From: Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) SlIPT4, encoding an isopentenyltransferase, is involved in leaf senescence and lycopene biosynthesis during fruit ripening

Fig. 1

Expression patterns of SlIPT4 in tomato. Relative expression analysis of SlIPT4 was performed in different tissues (a), in leaves at different developmental stages (b), in different parts of flower at different developmental stages (c), in fruits at different stages (d), and in response to drought stress treatment (e) by qRT-PCR. Petals have been shed at the post-anthesis stage, so no data was shown at this stage. Data are expressed as relative values, based on the values of leaf (a), expending leaf (b), early mature green fruit (c and d), and corresponding control groups (e) taken as reference sample set to 1. Each value represents mean ± SE (standard error) of three replicates. Ro, root; St, stem; Le, leaf; Fl, flower; Fr, fruit. Yl, young leaf; El, expending leaf; Edl, expended leaf. EMG, early mature green; MG, mature green; Br, break; Or, orange; Ri, ripening. CK, control; DT, drought treatment; 2, 6, 12 and 24 h represent the hours after watering
