AOC3 and gastroesophageal reflux disease: Compared with C_12_DW and D_31_SZ, the F_06_SZ (T-test, P < 0.01; P < 0.001) exhibited increased expression of GERD. An AOC3 gene (TRINITY_DN6496_c0_g2) upregulated in high Ab value accessions was also selected for RT-qPCR validation in F_06_SZ, L_22_SP, and O_07_DP accessions following increased Ab value (Figure 8B left).
