Abstract excerpt
The molecular evolution of the cucumber Por gene in early generations of the synthesized allotetraploid Cucumis x hytivus was investigated. The results from gene expression analysis showed that the cucumber Por gene was silenced in the S(1) generation, and re-activated in the S(2) generation. In the S(3) and S(4) generations, the transcripts remained activated but sequence changes were observed. Further analysis...
