GUS expression in the SlPIN1-VIGS line. (a) GUS staining in the pedicel. GUS staining is observed in the vascular strands (v) and the AZ of the pedicel, and the GUS staining in the Control is much deeper than that in line 1–6, 1–9 and 1–10. (b) GUS staining in the ovary. Strong GUS staining is observed in the ovary wall (o) and the basal tissue of the ovary in line 1–6, 1–9 and 1–10 (arrowheads). Only slight staining is visible in the basal tissue connecting the pedicel in the Control (arrowheads). The IAA levels in the AZ (c) and ovary (d) are shown in histograms. The asterisk indicates significant differences (P < 0.05) according to Duncan’s multiple range test. Flowers were sampled at anthesis. pl, placenta, o, ovary wall. Scale bars = 1 mm.
