SlCCS52A overexpression affects organ growth in Pro35S:SlCCS52A^OE line OE3. The whole plant development is affected leading to dwarf phenotype (A). The comparison of Pro35S:SlCCS52A^OE line OE3 (B) and wild-type (C) root system demonstrated that primary and secondary root growth is impaired in the transgenic lines. The endoreduplication process is increased in both leaves (G) and fruits (K) of the Pro35S:SlCCS52A^OE line OE3 when compared to that of the wild-type plants (E and I) respectively. Such modifications led to abnormal leaves (F) and fruits (J) development compared to wild-type (D and H).
