Phenotypic effects of NLY expression in Arabidopsis. (a) Plants (4 weeks old) grown under LD conditions. (Left) Wild-type plant (Columbia ecotype) with developing lateral shoots (s); (Center) 35S∷NLY-1 plant; and (Right) 35S∷NLY-7 plants with shorter primary shoots terminating with terminal flowers (tf) and solitary flowers arising in the axils of rosette leaves (rf) and bracts (if). (b) Plants (9 weeks old) grown under SD conditions. (Left) Wild-type plant (Columbia ecotype). (Right) 35S∷NLY-1 plant, which has already produced a flowering shoot. (c) Top view of extreme phenotype observed in 35S∷NLY-7 line, with terminal flower (tf) immediately above the rosette. Secondary shoots in the axils of rosette leaves have been transformed into solitary flowers (rf). (d) Solitary flower in the axil of a bract, replacing a lateral shoot in a 35S∷NLY plant. (e) Lateral shoot of wild-type Arabidopsis showing clusters of developing flowers. (f) Main shoot of a lfy-26 mutant; (g) Main shoot of a lfy-26 LFY∷NLY-6 plant. s’, petaloid stamen with shortened filament.
