Species-Specific Responses to ARF3 Activities.
(A) to (C)
Arabidopsis plants (A) overexpressing a ta-siARF–insensitive (m) ARF3 of either Arabidopsis
(B) or tomato (C) origin have bifacial flat leaves. WT, the wild type.
(D) Tomato plant overexpressing Arabidopsis mARF3.
(E) to (H) Comparison of wild-type (i) and 35S:Sl-mARF3 (ii) tobacco plants. Tobacco leaves (E) are mildly modified, whereas flowers (F) are smaller and the tips of the petals are narrow. N. benthamiana leaves (G) are narrow and curled down, whereas flowers (H) are smaller and the petals are narrow and separated.
(I) and (J) Leaves of normal (I) and 35S:At-mARF3
(J) potato plants.
