Figure 5. Artificial miRNA-directed silencing of PDS.

Figure 5

(A) Photo-bleached phenotypes expressed by Col-0 and drb mutants transformed with the amiR164B-PDS plant expression vector. Scale bars = 7.5 mm. (B) amiR-PDS accumulation and PRI-MIR164B-PDS and PDS expression in amiR164B-PDS expressing plants. (C) amiR169A-PDS-directed PDS silencing in wild-type plants and drb mutants. Red arrows indicate the small sectors of photo-bleaching displayed by drb235/amiR169A-PDS plants. Scale bars = 7.5 mm. (D) amiR-PDS accumulation and target transcript expression in plants expressing the modified PRI-MIR169A transcript targeting PDS for amiRNA-directed silencing.
