Figure 5.

HvVRN1 does not regulate transcription of BM1, BM10, orHvVRT2. Expression levels of BM1, BM10, and HvVRT2, assayed by qRT-PCR, in RNA from transgenic plants that carry either a RNAi construct against HvVRN1 (line HpVRN1-108) or a VRN1 overexpression construct (line OxVRN1-114). Expression is shown relative to a wild-type plant (14-d-old plants minus roots). Similar results were obtained in a second independently transformed line for each construct. Error bars show se. Differences were nonsignificant by Student's t test.
