Table 1. Frequency of ectopic buds at cotyledonary axils.
Genotype | Number of axillary buds at cotyledonary axils | Frequency of axillary bud formation per cotyledonary axil | Number of plants |
---|---|---|---|
35S:LFY or 35S:LFY/- | 2 | 0.04 | 25 |
35S:FT #1 | 0 | 0 | 41 |
35S:FT #11 | 0 | 0 | 42 |
35S:TSF #2 | 1 | 0.01 | 38 |
35S:TSF #4 | 0 | 0 | 45 |
35S:LFY/-; 35S:FT #1/- | 6 | 0.38 | 8 |
35S:LFY/-; 35S:FT #11/- | 9 | 0.25 | 18 |
35S:LFY/-; 35S:TSF #2/- | 11 | 0.42 | 13 |
35S:LFY/-; 35S:TSF #4/- | 0 | 0 | 14 |
Plants were grown under same conditions as in Figure 1 for 15 d and the number of axillary buds at cotyledonary axils was counted under a dissecting microscope. Note that the combination between 35S:TSF #4 (very weak transgene) and 35S:LFY did not result in axillary bud formation at cotyledonary axils.
