Table IV. Thioacidolysis of extract-free mature stems from Arabidopsis control lines and transgenic lines expressing the BdPMT1 or BdPMT2 gene under the control of the AtC4H promoter.
Data represent means (and sd) from three different plant pools per genotype. Asterisks indicate significant differences (one-way ANOVA) compared with the value of the corresponding control at P < 0.001. ND, Not detected.
