Differential expression in wheat apical leaves and floret glumes. Glumes (G) and leaves (L) from a single transgenic wheat plant (growth stage Feekes 10.5) were assayed for the level of lactoferrin expression by Northern and Western blot analyses. Quantitative estimation using ELISA showed that lactoferrin expression in glumes was only 20% of that in leaves.%TSP, Percent lactoferrin in total soluble protein.
