Phenotypes of fruit in wild-type and three different miR172 OE lines. a Immature fruit (8 days after 1 cm fruit) of wild-type (left) and miR172 OE lines (right); b Late stage of fruit ripening (10 days after breaker) in wild-type (left) showed normal pattern of ripening, but fruit in miR172 OE line (right) did not change to full red color; c Fruits in wild-type and miR172 OE lines showed normal pattern of ripening at different developmental stages (B, B3, B7) but fruit in miR172 OE line #13 did not change to full red color; d Transverse section of wild-type fruit and miR172 OE lines at different stages of fruit ripening (B, breaker; B3, 3 days after breaker; B7, 7 days after breaker)
