Table 1. Summary of the leaf phenotype of maize, setaria and rice scr, nkd and scr;nkd mutants from this study and previous work [4,5].

Species Mutant Leaf phenotype
Maize Zmscr1;Zmscr1h Veins separated by only one M cell, increase in sclerenchyma and ectopic BS cells. Occasional fused veins. Stomata normal on abaxial side but slightly reduced in number on adaxial side.
Zmnkd1;Zmnkd2 No obvious perturbations
Zmscr1;Zmscr1h;Zmnkd1;Zmnkd2 Large increase in the number of fused veins relative to Zmscr1;Zmscr1h mutants. Examples of >2 veins fused together.
Setaria Svscr1;Svscr2 No stomata. More veins separated by only one M cell than in wild-type
Svnkd No obvious perturbations
Svscr1;Svscr2;Svnkd Increased incidence of fused veins but fewer than in maize.
Rice Osscr1;Osscr2 No stomata. No obvious inner leaf perturbations
Osnkd No obvious perturbations.
Osscr1;Osscr2;Osnkd Phenotype same as Osscr1;Osscr2.
