Figure 4. Trichome and root hair phenotypes of CPC::SlTRY transgenic plants.

Figure 4

(A) Trichome formation on 2-week-old Arabidopsis third leaves of wild-type Col-0 and CPC::SlTRY (#1, #2, #3, #4 and #5). (B) Trichome formation on 2-week-old Arabidopsis third leaves of wild-type Col-0, cpc-2 mutant and CPC::SlTRY in cpc-2 (#1, #2, #3, #4 and #5). Number of trichomes per leaf was determined by counting a minimum of five 2-week-old third leaves from each line. (C) Root hair formation in 5-day-old Arabidopsis seedlings of wild-type Col-0 and CPC::SlTRY (#1, #2, #3, #4 and #5). (D) Root hair formation in 5-day-old Arabidopsis seedlings of wild-type Col-0, cpc-2 mutant and CPC::SlTRY in cpc-2 (#1, #2, #3, #4 and #5). The number of root hairs per mm was determined by counting a minimum of ten 5-day-old seedlings from each line. Error bars indicate the standard error. Bars marked with asterisks indicate a significant difference between the wild-type Col-0 and the transgenic lines (C), or the CPC-2 mutant and the transgenic lines (D) by Student’s t-test (P<0.050). Trichome phenotypes of wild-type Col-0 (E), cpc-2 (F), CPC::SlTRY (G) and CPC::SlTRY in cpc-2 (H). Root hair phenotypes of wild-type Col-0 (I), cpc-2 (J), CPC::SlTRY (K) and CPC::SlTRY in cpc-2 (L). Scale bars: 1 mm.
