B1 vitamer distribution in (A) leaves and (B) storage roots of greenhouse-grown cassava plants. Total vitamin B1 content corresponds to the TMP, TPP, and thiamin contents for each replicate. Percentage of total vitamin B1 corresponds to the proportion of each vitamer relative to the total vitamin B1 content. Data presented are the mean±SD of four biological replicates. Significant differences (P<0.05; Tukey’s multiple comparison test) are indicated by different letters. FW, fresh weight; nd, not detected.
