Cluster anlysis of the gene expression patterns in the flesh tissue (20,944) of both WT (Kyoho) and MT (Fengzao) across various developmental stages. Clustering was performed using k-means statistics and the number of genes included in each of the clusters is indicated in the bracket. The Y axis represents deviation of the expression levels (log-transformed, see Methods) of a gene at different developmental stages from the mean expression of the gene in consideration. The X-axis represents the sampling time points
