From: The terpene synthase (TPS) gene family in kiwifruit shows high functional redundancy and a subset of TPS likely fulfil overlapping functions in fruit flavour, floral bouquet and defence

Analysis of volatile terpene synthase gene expression in different kiwifruit tissues and time points. Red5 leaf, flower and bud samples for qRT-PCR correspond to those sampled in Fig. 1. Peel and flesh samples were obtained from developing fruit at 30–150 days (d) after anthesis. The gene-specific primers used are given in Table S7. See Table 1 for full TPS gene details. Expression is given relative to the young leaf sample of AcTPS1. 0.0: undetectable expression. Data are means of relative expression (n = 3). Hierarchical clustering was performed using TBtools v 1.0985. The scale bar and colouring was built based on the gene expression values in log base 2
