Fig. 7: Correlation analyses between the transcript abundance of strawberry MFS-type ST genes and soluble sugars across Benihoppe, L281#, and L84#.

The bar chart constructed in Origin 2017 shows the relationship between sugar accumulation in ripened fruits and FvST expression in fruits, largely at the turning (coloring), stage except for genes indicated with a blue diamond, for expression in the white stage, or a red four-pointed star, for expression in the green stage. Most bars present high significance at the 0.01 probability level (** omitted), except for those indicated with *, which present significance at the 0.05 probability level. Right panel, positive correlation; left panel (−), negative correlation
