Molecular Characterization of Ferulate 5-Hydroxylase Gene from Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.)
Figure 4
Expression patterns of HcF5H ortholog during developmental stages in various tissues. HcF5H ortholog was measured using QPCR, and the transcript level was calculated with respect to ACTIN level. The percent induction relative to control was calculated after deduction of the control transcript level. (a) HcF5H transcript level in various tissues and organs from 16-week-old plants, (b) HcF5H transcript level during stem development (2, 4, 6, 8, 16, and 20 weeks after sowing), (c) HcF5H transcript level during flower development (YF: young flower; IF: immature flower; MF: mature flower), and (d) HcF5H transcript level during leaf development (YL: young leaf; IL: immature leaf; ML: mature leaf). The vertical bars indicate means ± standard error of three biological replications. The letters on top of each point indicate significant differences between the mean values . NS: not significant; w: week.
