Analysis of WOX11 RNAi Transgenic Plants.
(A) Schematic representation of the WOX11 cDNA. The coding region is boxed. The slash region in the box corresponds to the conserved homeodomain. The cDNA segment used to construct the RNAi vector is indicated. UTR, untranslated region.
(B) Real-time RT-PCR analysis of WOX11 transcripts in the wild type and six RNAi transgenic lines. The PCR signals were normalized with actin transcripts. Transcript levels from the wild type were set at 1. Data are means ± sd (n = 3)
(C) Comparison of 1-week-old seedlings between the wild type (left) and the RNAi line RW4 (right).
(D) Comparison of 2-week-old seedlings between the wild type (left) and the RNAi line RW4 (right).
(E) Comparison of mature plants between the wild type (left) and the RNAi line RW4 (right).
LR, lateral root; CR, crown root; PR, primary root. Bar = 1 cm in (C) and (D) and 30 cm in (E).
