Figure 1

Chicken duodenal mRNA expression of divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1), ferroportin, and duodenal cytochrome B (DcytB) in birds given "High Fe bean" diet (54.6 ppm Fe) and "Low Fe bean" diet (42.9 ppm Fe). Changes in mRNA expression are shown relative to expression of 18S rRNA in arbitrary units (AU). Values are means ± SEM, n = 6, P < 0.05.
