Fig. 5From: Comparative RNA-sequencing-based transcriptome profiling of buds from profusely flowering ‘Qinguan’ and weakly flowering ‘Nagafu no. 2’ apple varieties reveals novel insights into the regulatory mechanisms underlying floral inductionGlobal analysis of bud transcriptomes during floral induction in ‘Qinguan’ and ‘Nagafu No. 2’ apple varieties. a Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) up-regulated in ‘Qinguan’ buds compared with ‘Nagafu No. 2’ buds during floral induction. b DEGs down-regulated in ‘Qinguan’ buds compared with ‘Nagafu No. 2’ buds during floral induction. Venn diagrams and the results of a cluster analysis of seven expression pattern types (a-, b-, c-, d-, e-, f-, and g-type) of up- and down-regulated DEGs between ‘Qinguan’ and ‘Nagafu No. 2’ are shown. QE_FE, QM_FM, and QL_FL correspond to the early, middle, and late stages of flower bud differentiation, respectively. The FPKM values were used for the cluster analysisBack to article page
