Overexpression of LDL1 or LDL2 in Arabidopsis reduces seed dormancy. (A) Quantitative analysis of the expression levels of LDL1 and LDL2 in the GFP-tagged transgenic lines. Leaves of 15-day-old plants were harvested for analysis. UBQ10 was used as an internal control. (B) Visualization of seed germination of LDL1 and LDL2 overexpression lines. (C) Quantification of germination rates of with 4 days' after-ripening after 3 days on 1/2 MS. The average (±SD) values are shown. The seeds of 4 d after-ripening were plated on 1/2 MS medium for 3 d.
