Figure. 3. Expression of GeSUT sucrose
transporters in G. elatatubers.
(a) Real-time PCR analysis of GeSUT expression in developing
tubers. Results are means ± SE from three biological samples. (b) RT-PCR
analysis of full length RNA transcripts of GeSUT genes. (c)
Expression of genes involved in sucrose metabolism in developing tubers.
Expression of a G. elata actin 7 analog, GeACT7 , was used
as an expression internal control.
