Fig. 4From: Genetic Dissection and Functional Differentiation of ALKa and ALKb, Two Natural Alleles of the ALK/SSIIa Gene, Responding to Low Gelatinization Temperature in RicePhysicochemical characteristics of mature grains from different near-isogenic lines (NILs) and expression levels of different ALK alleles in developing seed. a Apparent amylose content (AAC) in mature rice grains. b Gel consistency (GC) in mature rice grains. c Transcriptional levels of ALK gene in developing seeds at 15 days after flowering (DAF). d Rapid Visco Analyzer (RVA) curves of rice flours from mature rice grains. Error bars are mean ± s.d. (n = 3), and the small letters above error bars indicate significant differences among subpopulations (P < 0.05)Back to article page
