Figure 4.

Cell sizes and cell numbers in cotyledons of the wild type and rpt2a mutants. A, Cleared cotyledons of mature embryos and close-ups of the central regions showing the sizes of the adaxial subepidermal cells. Bars = 100 μm and 10 μm for top and bottom panels, respectively. B, Average area ± sd of adaxial subepidermal cells of mature embryos. C, Cell number per cotyledon. The number of palisade cells was counted from micrographs of cleared cotyledons. A minimum of five cotyledons per line was analyzed, and the mean ± sd is shown. D and E, Cell area (D) and cell number (E) in unexpanded 3-d-old (3DO) cotyledons. The number of adaxial subepidermal cells per cotyledon is presented as mean ± sd, and the cell number is presented relative to the wild-type (WT) values ± sd. F and G, Cell area (F) and cell number (G) in fully expanded, 10-d-old (10DO) cotyledons. *** P < 0.0001. [See online article for color version of this figure.]
