Log₁₀-transformed relative transcript abundance of carbohydrate metabolism and transport genes in lamina and stubble of perennial ryegrass plants that had low or high carbon reserves.

LC, plants with low carbon reserves; HC, plants with high carbon reserves; SED, standard error of the difference; ugp, uridine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphorylase; hxk, hexokinase; hxt, hexose transporter; sut, sucrose transporter. Symbols †, * and NS indicate significant differences between transcript abundance means at the <0.10 and <0.05 probability levels and lack of difference at the >0.10 probability level, respectively.
