Analysis of reproductive phase change and flower transitions in NaHD20-silenced plants grown under control conditions. EV and NaHD20-silenced plants were grown under control conditions in ambient growth chambers. For all experiments, day 0 (D0) was defined as the time in which the first EV plants bolted and time therefore refers to days after D0. (A) Bolting time expressed as the percentage of bolted plants relative to D0 [two-sample Kolmogorov–Smirnov (K–S) test; P <10−4]. (B) Rate of stalk elongation. (C) Percentage of plants that had at least one opened bud (OB; two-sample K–S test; P <10−4). (D) Number of closed buds per plant (buds per plant). (E) Number of opened buds (OBs) per plant. (F) Number of opened corolla flowers (OCFs) per plant. *Mann–Whitney U-test; P <0.05; NaHD20-silenced plants versus EV plants. Each data point corresponds to data collected for 15 plants per plant type. (This figure is available in colour at JXB online.)
