Figure 5

Characterization of two conserved AS events in developing xylem of Populus and Eucalyptus. Gene structures are shown for the conserved AS events in AP2 family (A) and AUX/IAA family (B). Boxes represent exons and lines represent introns. Hatched regions indicate coding sequences. Red and blue colors indicate predicted domains. Primers designed for RT-PCR are shown by black arrows. (C) RT-PCR verification of the two conserved AS events. The upper bands indicate the full transcripts in AP2 lanes and the intron-retained transcripts in AUX/IAA lanes.
