Shoot elongation in the wild-type (WT) and CYP94C2b-overexpressing lines at seedling stage under non-stress conditions. (A) Length of the second leaf sheath in 1-week-old rice seedlings with (+) and without (−) the CYP94C2b transgene, segregated from the same line, was compared to that in non-transgenic WT plants. Average and standard deviation in WT and siblings of the transgenic lines are indicated. n ≥ 3. (B) Plot of shoot length and relative expression levels of CYP94C2b in each plant. Expression levels of CYP94C2b were analyzed by quantitative reverse transcription PCR and normalized to those of 25S rRNA as reported in ref. 6.
