Phenotypes of the transgenic CsCTR1-overexpressing lines (33, 15 and 47) compared with that of Arabidopsis wild type (col) and the ctr1-1 mutant. (A) Five-day-old seedlings grown in the light; (B) Five-day-old etiolated seedlings; (C) Root length of the seedlings grown in the light; (D) Root and hypocotyl length of the etiolated seedlings; (E) Adult plants at the rosette stage; and (F) Phenotypes of the gynoecium in developing flower, the white arrow indicates the gynoecium protruding out of the unopened buds in ctr1-1 mutant. Error bars on each column indicate standard deviation from ten replicates. The statistical significance was determined by Duncan’s multiple comparison tests. Different letters above bars indicate significant differences (p < 0.05). The same letter indicates no significant difference (p < 0.05).
