Spatial and temporal ACLA/B and AACT mRNA expression profile in wild-type T. brevicorniculatum plants determined by qRT-PCR. The corresponding mRNA levels were normalized against the constitutive genes elongation factor 1 α (TbEF1α), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (TbGAPDH) and ribosomal protein L27 (TbRP) from T. brevicorniculatum. Bars represent standard errors of three independent wild-type plants per line. Normal distribution at p < 0.05 was assessed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Different letters indicate a significant difference (ANOVA with Tukey’s honest significant difference test (p < 0.01)). a TbACLA1 and TbACLA2 b TbACLB1 and TbACLB2 and c TbAACT1 and TbAACT2 mRNA levels in latex, roots, peduncles, leaves and flowers of 10-week-old wild-type T. brevicorniculatum plants. d TbACLA1 and TbACLA2, e TbACLB1 and TbACLB2 and f TbAACT1 and TbAACT2 mRNA levels in seedlings and root material of wild-type T. brevicorniculatum plants ranging in age from 4 to 32 weeks. Plants flowered in June
