Phenolic acid, lignin and proanthocyanins content in tuber extract. a) HPLC determination of phenolic acid in epidermal tuber extracts from control (C-grey bar), transgenic plant over-expressing DFR (DFR-black bar) and transgenic lines over-expressing DFR and UGT (numbered-striped bars). The mean value (n = 6) ± SE is presented. Asterisks (*) indicate values that are significantly different at p > 0.05 from the wild type plants. b) Determination of lignin and sinapic acid content in epidermal tuber extracts from control (C-grey bar), transgenic plant over-expressing DFR (DFR-black bar) and transgenic lines over-expressing DFR and UGT (numbered-striped bars). The mean value (n = 6) ± SE is presented. Asterisks (*) indicate values that are significantly different (with p > 0.05) from the wild type plants. c) Determination of proanthocyanins content in epidermal tuber extracts from control (C-grey bar), transgenic plant over-expressing DFR (DFR-black bar) and transgenic lines over-expressing DFR and UGT (numbered-striped bars). The mean value (n = 6) ± SE is presented. Asterisks (*) indicate values that are significantly different from the wild type plants at p > 0.05.
