Fig. 5

Transcript abundance for 18 genes coding for enzymes/proteins related to carotenoid biosynthesis in cassava storage root. Transcript abundance based on microarray analysis. Three landraces representing three distinct color classes (W-IAC12, IY-Cas64, P-Cas51) showing the most contrasting HPLC_DAD carotenoid profiles as shown in Fig. 4. Values refer to natural log for microarray fluorescence readings. Enzyme abbreviation and gene code in cassava genome are shown. Values in parenthesis refer to p_value obtained with three biological replications by Kruskal-Wallis statistical test. No significance between values were detected
