Saccharification assays of green leaves (a) and senesced tissues (b) of the wild-type (WT) and OsAT10 overexpression switchgrass lines (FT2 and FT8). Reducing sugars released from biomass were measured using the 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) method. Bars represent mean ± standard deviation. The numbers of biological replicates for green leaf tissues of lines WT, FT2 and FT8 are 3, 4 and 4, respectively, and 4, 5, and 5, respectively, for senesced tissues. Asterisks indicate significant differences using the unpaired Student’s t-test (*P < 0.05)
