Tissue-specific sugar composition and expression of FeSUT1 in F. excelsior. Samples were taken from three 3-year-old saplings grown in an open greenhouse. (A) Tissue-specific sugar and sugar alcohol content during winter, spring, and summer in F. excelsior. (B) Tissue-specific expression levels of FeSUT1 during winter, spring, and summer. Expression levels of FeSUT1 were normalized to actin and values are given as relative expression levels to the first sample of the measurement (calibrator [cal]). Student’s t-test was performed with P ≤ 0.05 to test for significance of changes compared to calibrator [cal] (asterisk denotes significant difference). Brk, bark; Hex, hexoses; Mal, maltose; RFO, raffinose-oligosaccharide family sugars; Snk lf, sink leaf; Src lf, source leaf; SuAlc, sugar alcohols; Suc, sucrose; Wd, wood.
