Carotenoid accumulation in cassava leaves infected with CsCMV2-crtB

(a) Schematic representation of the pCsCMV2-crtB expression vector. (b) Phenotypes of cassava leaves agroinfiltrated with CsCMV2-crtB or CsCMV2-GFP at 20 dpi. (c) Heat map of the differentially accumulated carotenoids in yellow cassava leaves from CsCMV2-crtB-infected cassava plants and symptomatic CsCMV2-GFP-infected leaves. (d) Comparative analysis of carotenoid content in the systemic leaves of cassava plants infected with CsCMV2-crtB and CsCMV2-GFP at 20 dpi. Error bars indicate the standard deviation of three independent samples. Significant differences were determined by Student’s t-test (*P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01)
