Expression analysis of genes involved in MVA and MEP pathways. Expression was analyzed through qRT-PCR in different plant parts. Leaf, Mature leaf; FS1, Fruit stage 1; FS2, Fruit stage-2; FS3, Fruit stage-3 and FS4, Fruit stage-4. HMGR1 and HMGR2, 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzymeA reductase; HMGS, 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzymeA synthase; DXR, 1-Deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate reductoisomerase; DXS, 1-Deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase; FPPS, Farnesyl diphosphate synthase; SQS, Squalene synthase.
