Fig. 3. Temporal expression patterns of flowering-related genes in chrysanthemum
leaves. Plants were grown under B-SD (12-h blue light/12-h D), B-SD/NB-B (B-SD
with 4-h NB-B), and B + R-SD/NB-B (B + R-SD with 4-h NB-B) for 7 d. The horizontal
white and gray bars represent the blue and red light periods, respectively. The black
bar represents the period of darkness. Data were normalized against EF1˛ expression.
The maximum value in each experiment was set to 1. Data are represented as
the mean
±
SE of 3 biological replicates, each consisting of pooled material from 2
or 3 plants. Error bars, when not evident, were smaller than the symbols used.
