Figure 2: Heterografted pepper fails to form vascular connections and shows a significant decrease in size 30 DAG.

Figure 2:

(a, c, e, g, i, k, m, o, q, s, w, u, w, y) Representative photographs and (b, d, f, h, j, l, n, p, r, t, v, x, z) confocal micrographs for self-grafted tomato (a-b), self-grafted habanero (c-d), tomato:Habanero (e-f), Habanero:tomato (g-h), self-grafted Doux des Landes (DDL) (i-j), tomato:DDL (k-l), DDL:tomato (m-n). self-grafted Cayenne (o-p), tomato:Cayenne (q-r), Cayenne:tomato (s-t), self-grafted California Wonder (CW) (u-v), tomato:CW (w-x), CW:tomato (y-z). Graft junctions were stained with propidium iodide and imaged on a confocal microscope. Pink arrows indicate a successful graft junction with a healed xylem, white arrows indicate a failed vascular reconnection and white Asterix highlight adventitious roots. All plant images have scale bars are 5 cm, and all micrograph scale bars are 1000 μm.
