Figure 7. Correlation between leaf bending, grain size and expression of the PGL1 gene in lemma/palea.
A) Grain phenotype (upper), Leaf bending of transgenic T2 and Nippobare WT plants (middle) and expression of PGL1 in lemma/palea analyzed by RT-PCR (lower). B) Coleoptile length of 5 days-old seedling growth in medium containing different concentrations of brassinolide (BL) under continuous light at 28°c of Kita-ake wild type and Ki3 T4 overexpressing line, (error bars indicated of ±sd, n = 15).
