A, Photograph of (left to right) wild

gar2–1 and gai spy-7 gar2–1 grown (50 d after
sowing) in SD. The wild-type and gai plants do not have
open flowers, whereas suppressed gai plants, in
particular gai gar2–1 and gai spy-7
gar2–1, have already flowered. B, Comparison of flowering
times of the wild type (WT), gai, gai
spy-7, gai gar2–1, and gai spy-7
gar2–1 under LD (black bars) and SD (gray bars). Numbers of
rosette and cauline leaves that appeared prior to the opening of the
first flower bud were counted. Results are presented as means ±
se (n = 29–35).
