Carbohydrate content in leaves and stems of Lada and ST plants. Plants were grown in vitro from apical segments on a medium with 3% sucrose for two and four weeks and in the greenhouse (in vivo) for 4 weeks. The sugar contents represent totals of glucose, fructose and sucrose contents, the starch contents are expressed as glucose equivalents; the histograms represent the mean +SD from 3 to 6 replicates per variant; * and ** = significantly different from the corresponding organs of control (Lada) at 0.01 ≤ P < 0.05 and P < 0.01, respectively, according to Student's paired t-test.
