From: RNA interference-based gene silencing of phytoene synthase impairs growth, carotenoids, and plastid phenotype in Oncidium hybrid orchid

Figure 5

Relative transcript levels of carotenoid biosynthesis genes in transgenic Oncidium orchids. Transcript levels of the carotenoid biosynthesis genes. GGDS: GGPP synthase; PSY: phytoene synthase; PDS: phytoene desaturase; ZDS: zeaxanthin desaturase; LCY: lycopene cyclase. ZEP: zeaxanthin epoxidase. Gene transcript levels were measured by RT-qPCR. Transcript levels were calculated and normalized with respect to ubiquitin mRNA. The experiment was repeated three times.
