Differential expression of fructan-related genes in the green tissues (top) and root tissues of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) variety “Veyo” and ecotype “Falster” during cold acclimation. (A,B) Sucrose: sucrose 1-fructosyltransferase (Lp1-SST). (C,D) Fructan: fructan 1-fructosyltransferase (Lp1-FFT). (E,F) Fructan: fructan 6G-fructosyltransferase (Lp6G-FFT). (G,H) Fructan exohydrolase (Lp1-FEH). (I,J) Fructan exohydrolase (Lp6-FEH). Changes in mRNA levels of the genes in the top and root tissues of “Veyo” (A,C,E,G,I) and “Falster” (B,D,F,H,J) are shown. Relative gene expression was measured by quantitative RT-PCR. Expression values were normalized by geometric averaging of elongation factor 1-alpha (LpEF1a), actin (LpACT11), and eukaryotic initiation factor 4A (LpeIF4a) internal control genes. Data represent the mean ± SE, obtained from three biological replicates of the analysis.
