Fig. 6From: Association among starch storage, metabolism, related genes and growth of Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys heterocycla) shootsVerification of DEGs via qRT-PCR. The relative amount of mRNA (y-axis) is the ratio normalized to the amount of ACT (Actin) mRNA. The bamboo shoot growth and developmental stages are on shown on the x-axis. R indicates the correlation coefficient of the expression between the RNA-seq and qRT-PCR data (p < 0.05). The expression of each gene in S0 was set at 1.0Back to article page
