From: Transcriptomic analysis reveals the roles of microtubule-related genes and transcription factors in fruit length regulation in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)

Figure 1

Morphological characterization of two near-isogenic cucumber lines with different fruit lengths.

(A)–(D) Cucumber line 408 with long fruit (left) and its near-isogenic line 409 with short fruit (right) at commercially mature fruit stage (A)–(B), anthesis stage (C) and 4 days before anthesis (D). The bars in B represent the standard deviation (n = 10). Asterisk indicates that fruit length is significantly different between 408 and 409 (unpaired t test, P < 0.05). Square brackets in C and D show the lengths of early fruits. Samples at the same developmental stage as in D were used for RNA-Seq analyses. Scale bars represent 1 cm.
