Tissue- and species-specific expression of the
β-amylase gene. A, Total RNA from leaves, stems, and roots of
alfalfa. B, Total RNA from roots of alfalfa (ALF), white clover (WC),
sweetclover (SC), red clover (RC), and birdsfoot trefoil (BFT) at the
time of flowering. Northern blots were hybridized with the
32P-labeled pMSBA1 β-amylase insert.
