Specificity of StGI.04 repression in aGI52. The RT-qPCR analysis was carried out using (a) the GI04spec and (b) the GI12spec primer pair. The leaf RNA was derived from 1-cm-diameter discs of 9 leaves of 9 plants divided into 3 groups. The tuber RNA was the same used in the RT-qPCR analysis presented in Fig. 1c. Y-axis shows mean relative expression values of StGI genes compared to the geometric mean expression values of ACTIN and EF1α. The standard deviations from three biological replicates are indicated by the error bars. DES, non-transformed control ‘Désirée’
