Fig. 6

The expression pattern of eleven genes in the seed coat of PR9920–171 and TARS-HT1. The panel on the top shows the expression level of the 11 genes using 2-ΔCt. High expression was detected for Phvul.003G277500 and Phvul.003G277600, which encode orthologs of for pectin acetylesterase 8. The bottom panel represents the 2-ΔΔCt reflecting the relative expression fold change for each gene. Different relative expression was detected between PR9920–171 and TARS-HT1 for Phvul.003G277600 and Phvul.003G278400 (indicated by asterisks). Higher expression (~ 21 folds) of Phvul.003G277600 was detected in the PR9920–171 seed coat relative to TARS-HT1. However, TARS-HT1 showed higher expression for Phvul.003G278400 compared to PR9920–171. For both panels, dark and light blue represents TARS-HT1 and PR9920–171, respectively
