UVI4 and DEL1 independently control trichome ploidy levels. A and B, Expression pattern of UVI4 and DEL1 in the root meristem (A) and leaves (B). Bars = 0.1 mm. C, Scanning electron microscope images of wild-type (Col-0), uvi4, del1-1, and uvi4 del-1 trichomes. Images are representative for the mean. Bars = 300 μm. D, Epifluorescence images of DAPI-stained wild-type, uvi4, del-1, and uvi4 del-1 trichome nuclei. Images are representative for the mean (n > 8). Bars = 10 μm.
