Transcriptomic changes in Cucurbita pepo fruit after cold storage: differential response between two cultivars contrasting in chilling sensitivity

Table 4 Candidate genes likely to be involved in chilling tolerance of zucchini fruit. Expression profile in fruit before (fresh harvested, FH) and after 14 days of storage at 20 °C and 4 °C is shown in FPKMs
