m⁶A methylation is generally negatively correlated with transcript abundance. a Scatter plots showing transcripts with differential m⁶A enrichment between wild-type (WT) fruit at 39 DPA and 42 DPA. The m⁶A-modified mRNAs with significantly higher and lower peak enrichment in 39 DPA WT fruit compared to 42 DPA WT fruit are highlighted in red and green, respectively (fold change ≥ 1.5; P value < 0.05). b Scatter plots showing the transcripts with differential m⁶A enrichment between WT fruit at 42 DPA and Cnr fruit at 42 DPA. The m⁶A-modified mRNAs with significantly higher and lower peak enrichment in Cnr fruit compared to WT fruit are highlighted in red and green, respectively (fold change ≥ 1.5; P value < 0.05). c Expression of m⁶A-modified transcripts that exhibit significantly higher peak enrichment in 39 DPA WT fruit compared to 42 DPA WT fruit. d Expression of m⁶A-modified transcripts that exhibit significantly lower peak enrichment in 39 DPA WT fruit compared to 42 DPA WT fruit. c, d Transcripts with significantly higher and lower levels in 39 DPA WT fruit compared to 42 DPA WT fruit are highlighted in red and green, respectively (fold change ≥ 1.5; P value < 0.05). e Expression of m⁶A-modified transcripts that exhibit significantly higher peak enrichment in Cnr fruit compared to WT fruit. f Expression of m⁶A-modified transcripts that exhibit significantly lower peak enrichment in Cnr fruit compared to WT fruit. e, f Transcripts with significantly higher and lower levels in Cnr fruit compared to WT fruit are highlighted in red and green, respectively (fold change ≥ 1.5; P value < 0.05). Gene expression analysis was performed by RNA-seq. FPKM, fragments per kilobase of exon per million mapped fragments
