Fig. 7

The vertical distribution of the contents of nonstructural carbohydrates (NSCs) in the leaf sheaths and stems of wild-type and RBCS-sense rice plants in the canopies at 49 DAH in the late-ripening stage in the plots with 15 g N m−2 fertilizer. The contents of NSCs (A) starch (B), sucrose (C), and glucose (D) are indicated. Mean values ± the standard error of three independent plots are shown. *p < 0.05 between the wild-type and RBCS-sense rice plants using Student’s t-test. The wild-type and RBCS-sense rice plants are represented by black and red bars, respectively. The abbreviations stand as follows: NSC; nonstructural carbohydrates, “RBCS-sense”; transgenic rice plants overproducing Rubisco, “Wild”; wild-type rice plants
