Figure 7. The cca1lhy mutant showed oil body retention in comparison to wild-type WS.

Confocal laser microscopy of Nile Red stained oil bodies of the radicle from 1-day-old imbibed seeds (Day 1) and hypocotyl epidermis from 2- to 5-day-old seedlings (Day 2 to Day 5) of the cca1lhy mutant and wild-type WS germinated under 12-h-light/12-h-dark cycles on water-based agar. Samples from freshly-harvested and after-ripening seeds of the cca1lhy mutant and wild-type WS are shown. Scale bar  =  10 µm.
