Figure 5. Effect of TaVRN-B2 overexpression on Arabidopsis flowering genes.

Figure 5

A) Expression pattern of flowering genes under unvernalized conditions in control (35S::GUS) and transgenic 35S::TaVRN-B2 plants. Seven and 14 days (d) old plants were grown at 20°C under LD conditions. Relative transcript abundance is normalized in relation to the level of each gene at 7 days of 35S::GUS control sample. B) Expression pattern of FLC under cold acclimation conditions in control (35S::GUS) and transgenic 35S::TaVRN-B2 plants (Line 1). Fifteen days old plants were grown at 4°C for 5 weeks. Relative transcript abundance in normalized to the 35S::GUS control sample at zero time. C) Total number of leaves (n = 32) of cold acclimated control (35S::GUS) and transgenic 35S::TaVRN-B2 plants (Line 1) at bolting stage.
