Starch and sucrose metabolism of ‘Chili’ pear with different bagging treatments. (a) The soluble sugar content of ‘Chili’ fruit pericarp during development. Error bars on each symbol indicate SEs from three replicates. (b) The pathway of starch and sucrose metabolism (http://www.kegg.jp/dbget-bin/www_bget?map00500). (c) Gene expression level inferred by q-PCR. Error bars on each column indicate SEs from three replicates. The expression pattern of each DEG is shown by 3 grids: the left one represents the RPKM value of the unbagged fruit (x), the middle one represents the RPKM value of the PE-bagged fruit (y), and the right one represents the RPKM value of the non-woven fabric-bagged fruit (z). The grids with different colors from green to red show the absolute expression magnitude with the RPKM values 0–25.81. DAA means days after anthesis.
