Fig. 3From: AgMYB5, an MYB transcription factor from celery, enhanced β-carotene synthesis and promoted drought tolerance in transgenic ArabidopsisTotal carotenoid and β-carotene accumulation and AgMYB5 expression in different developmental stages of ‘Jinnanshiqin’. Three developmental stages of celery included S1 (35 d post-planting), S2 (50 d post-planting), and S3 (65 d post-planting). A The total carotenoid and β-carotene contents and (B) relative expression level of AgMYB5 during different developmental stages. The asterisk indicates a statistically significant difference (*, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01)Back to article page
