Fig. 3. Total ubiquinone content and rate of de novo ubiquinone biosynthesis in A. thaliana. A) Total ubiquinone-9 content in the rosette leaves of 3-week-old wild-type, ugt78d1, ugt78d2, ugt78d3 and ugt78d1/ugt78d2 plants grown on soil. B) Relative ubiquinone-9- [Ring-13C] labeling in the leaves of axenically 6 grown wild-type, ugt78d1, ugt78d2, ugt78d3 and ugt78d1/ugt78d2 plants fed for 3h with 250 μM of phenylalanine-[Ring- 13C]. Data represent the means of 4–6 6 biological replicates ± SE. P values from an analysis of variance between each mutant and the wild-type reference are indicated above the bars. Asterisks indicate significant differences from the wild type as determined by variance analysis (P
