WT plants, the lfy-15 mutant, and two independent JcLFY-overexpressing lines (C1 and C4) grown under LD growing conditions (16 h light/8 h dark) were subjected to the analysis of rosette leaves, flower bud formation time, flowering time, height, branches, and cauline leaves. N = plant number. The values are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. *Significantly different from the control at the 5% level; **significantly different from the control at the 1% level.
