Effects of phytoplasma infection on carbohydrate metabolic processes.a Heat map of differentially expressed transcripts belonging to carbohydrate metabolism. b Focus on genes encoding key sugar-mobilising enzymes: the sucrose synthase SUSY4 (VIT_11s0016g00470), the vacuolar invertase GIN2 (VIT_02s0154g00090) and the hexose transporter HT2 (VIT_18s0001g05570). RT-qPCR analysis was performed on leaf vein samples from healthy (H), recovered (REC) or FDp-infected (FD) ‘Barbera’ plants. Ubiquitin (VvUBI) and actin (VvACT1) genes were both used as endogenous controls for the normalisation of transcriptional levels. Lower case letters denote statistical differences when significant, as determined by Tukey’s HSD test (P < 0.05). Bars represent standard error of the mean (n = 5)
