Fig. 9

Labeled and non-labeled pigments in 13C-labeled Arabidopsis leaves harvested after 7-d 13CO2 labeling. a Degree of 13C labeling (ΣDoL) and b non-labeled pigment population (NLP) of all-trans- and 9-cis-β-Car, Lut, Chl a and Chl b. Red and blue symbols represent plants that had higher (n = 12) or lower (n = 3) 13C incorporation in pigments, respectively. Black triangles in a are control plants (n = 4) that stayed in the ambient air outside the labeling chamber. Data of the control plants are not shown in b since they all had 100% NLP. The box plots are based on the data of the 13C-labeled samples (i.e., red and blue symbols); the control plants (black triangles) shown in a are not included in the box plots. The thick horizontal line inside the box shows the median. The middle 50% of the data fall between the upper and lower end of the box. Data beyond the whisker boundaries are outliers
