Fe and Zn content in vegetative and grain tissues during grain filling of CE‐OsNAS2 and NS wheat lines. Fe and Zn content (μg) in NS (open circles) and CE‐1 (closed circles) plant tissues between 5–8, 12–15, 19–21 and 26–29 days after anthesis (DAA) as well as at maturity. (a, b) grain; (c, d) bracts; (e, f) rachis; and (g, h) flag leaf tissues were sampled for Fe and Zn content, respectively. Each symbol represents mean ± SEM of at least 3 biological replicates. Asterisks denote the significance between NS and CE‐1 for P < 0.05 (*), P ≤ 0.01 (**), P ≤ 0.001 (***) as determined by student's t‐test.
