Figure 2From: Deletions of the SACPD-C locus elevate seed stearic acid levels but also result in fatty acid and morphological alterations in nitrogen fixing nodulesComparative Genome Hybridization analysis of MM106 in comparison to ‘Bay’. (a) Entire genome view of Comparative Genome Hybridization for MM106/’Bay’. Deletion affecting Gm14 is indicated by arrow. (b) PCR assay for detecting stearoyl-acyl carrier protein desaturase (SACPD) gene deletions from ‘Bay’ radiation induced mutant lines. L indicate molecular weight ladder, “-“ indicates negative control. (c) Southern blot analysis with a SACPD-C specific probe against DNA from MM106 (1), ‘Williams 82’(2), and FN8 F2:3 segregants which displayed typical levels of seed stearic acid (4–6) and FN8 F2:3 samples which displayed elevated levels of seed stearic acid (7–9).Back to article page
