From: QTL analysis for chalkiness of rice and fine mapping of a candidate gene for qACE9
Quantitative real-time RT-PCR analysis of 5 predicted genes in seeds of two parents at filling stage and comparison of grain size (GL, GW and length-width ratio (LWR)), apparent amylose content (AAC) and chain-length distributions of grain amylopectins between NILqACE9 and 9311. a, b Values represent means ± SD of three independent assays. c Schematic graph of chromosomes of NILqACE9. d Values represent means ± SD of 100 grains for GL, GW and LWR, 3 independent assays for AAC. Unit for Y-axis is cm for GL and GW, and % for AAC. e Distribution of chain length distribution of grain amylopectins by FCEP method
