Fig. 1From: RNA-seq-based evaluation of bicolor tepal pigmentation in Asiatic hybrid lilies (Lilium spp.)Tepal development of the Asiatic hybrid lily Lollypop. Inner tepal (right) and outer tepal (left) at each stage are shown. Flower bud development stages (St) are as follows: St 1, no anthocyanin pigmentation; St 2, red spots appeared on tepal bases; St 3, beginning of pigmentation in upper tepals; St 4 (1 d before anthesis), maximum pigmentation; St 5, blossoming. Scale bar = 1 cm. Colored boxes indicate tepal parts used for the experiments (black boxes–upper tepals, red boxes–tepal bases)Back to article page
