Expression of candidate marker genes of sugar starvation is upregulated in growth-suppressed parthenocarpic cucumber fruit. Novel gene markers for sugar starvation in growth-suppressed cucumber fruit
To examine the physiological change in the growth suppression and abortion of parthenocarpic cucumber fruit, the expression of candidate marker genes of sugar starvation in relation to growth activity was examined.Fruits that failed here to start exponential growth seemed to eventually abort.Hexose concentration of fruits was low in growth-suppress
