Fig. 4. Expression of SbTT2 or SbMYB5 reduces growth and enhances anthocyanin accumulation in yellow-seeded maize.

Fig. 4

a Top, images of seeds from untransformed B104, transgenic lines expressing SbTT2 (SbTT2-21 and SbTT2-31), and transgenic lines expressing SbMYB5 (SbMYB5-12 and SbMYB5-51); middle, zoom-in images of seeds in the top row showing differences in seed size and color; bottom, images of maize coleoptile at 5 days after seed germination showing differences in color. b Seed weight of untransformed B104 and transgenic lines expressing SbTT2 or SbMYB5. Data are presented as mean ± S.D. (n = 6, independent biological replicates). Asterisks denote significant difference relative to untransformed B104 at P < 0.01 determined by two-tailed Student’s t-test. c Images of maize silk showing differences in color. Source data for Fig. 4b are provided in the Source Data file.
