Diurnal Variations in Soluble Sugar and Starch Content during the Transition from SDs to LDs in the Wild Type and the lst8-1-2 Mutant.

Plants were first grown under controlled SD conditions and harvested at the beginning (morning [m]) and end (night [n]) of the day preceding the shift to LD. Plants were again harvested at day 2 after the start of LD conditions. Results are mean of at least three different samples ± sd. Statistically different values between the wild type (WT) and lst8-1-2 are indicated by a star (Student’s t test). FW, fresh weight.
