Changes in targeted isoprenoids from purified
plastids from green
leaf and berry skin of red grapes cv. “Vinhão”:
supervised partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) of
(A) green berry vs mature berry, (B) green leaf vs mature leaf, and (C) heatmap of the observed changes.
Variables in the PLS-DA score plot were colored according to the tissue
and developmental stage. Data represent, for each metabolite, the
fold on the internal standard (IS, a-tocopherol acetate) level/gm
DW. Asterisks indicate statistical significance between mature (E-L
38) and green (E-L 34) conditions following the Student’s t-test: *P ≤ 0.05; **P ≤ 0.01; ***P ≤ 0.001; and ****P ≤ 0.0001.
