Generation of lettuce transgenic plants overexpressing the Arabidopsis AtGRDP2 gene. (A) Phenotype of 7 day-old WT and transgenic lettuce plants; (B) primary root length, and (C) fresh weight of WT and transgenic lettuce plants was measured. (D) 30 day-old WT and transgenic lettuce plants, (E) the number of leaves in these plants is graphically represented. (F) 60 day-old WT and transgenic lettuce plants; (G) the number of leaves and (H) stem length are indicated. (I) 90 day-old WT and transgenic lettuce plants; (J) distribution of flowering plants in a period of 15 days is graphically represented. Data was obtained from 9 seedlings of each line, mean ± SE (n = 9). Different letters indicate significant differences (P < 0.05) among lines were explored through Tukey's multiple comparisons tests.
