FIGURE 6

Grain weight and carbohydrate contents of α-amylase-overexpressing grains. (A) Starch content (mg/grain) and grain weight (mg) are indicated using vertical bars (left axis) and red short horizontal bars (right axis), respectively. Black, gray, and blue bars represent the mean starch contents of all vector control (VC) lines, each VC line, and each α-amylase-overexpressing line, respectively. (B) Soluble sugar contents. Contents of glucose, maltose, sucrose, maltotriose, and maltotetraose were quantified. Asterisks indicate significant differences compared with VC lines (4-3 and 15-1), as determined using Student’s t-test. P < 0.05; ∗∗P < 0.01; ∗∗∗P < 0.001. Error bars indicate standard deviations of three independent plants.
