Each value represents the average of four biological replicas except for PII-end which represents three replicas and standard deviations are shown in brackets. Means of each ratio that share a letter (A, B or C) are not significantly different (ANOVA after log transformation). Differences between A15 and MnP1-1 are indicated with an asterisk (*) (T-test, Bonferroni correction, p < 0.01)
