Phenotypic analysis of flat peach abortion. a Comparing the size of viable (‘ZH’) and aborting flat peach (‘XJ2’) at 30 DAFB. Scale bar = 1 cm. b Comparison of cheek diameter during fruit development among round (‘JH’), viable flat (‘ZH’) and aborting flat (‘XJ2’) peach. Bar is standard deviation (SD). c Pollen tube growth in ‘JH’, ‘ZH’ and ‘XJ2’. Scale bar = 1 mm. d Nuclear DNA content in leaves (left) and seeds (right) of aborting flat peach cultivar (‘XJ2’) was analyzed using flow-cytometry. The x axle shows DNA florescence identity peaks corresponding to the 2n, 3n and 4n nuclear DNA content of peach. The y axle shows the counts of nuclei. e Sucrose and starch contents in seed and fruit flesh were analyzed at 15 DAFB for ‘JH’, ‘ZH’ and ‘XJ2’. Bar is SD
