Figure 6.

Phenotypes of plants that contain the gene encoding the 3Δ mutant of RF2a. (A) The plants on the left contain the transgene and grew more slowly than the plant that lacked the transgene due to segregation in the T₁ generation (Right). (B) intermediate phenotype, showing shoot elongation, curvature of leaves, and a decrease in apical dominance. (C) Size of roots in plants with the 3Δ gene (Right) compared with nontransgenic T₁ progeny (Left). (D and E) Close-up of leaves showing downward curvature. (F) Abnormal plant showing the phenotype of severe stunting with thick leaf lamina.
