Growth analysis of 1‐year‐old plants from wild‐type and HbERF‐IXc5 transgenic lines. Each data item is the mean of 40 replications for morphological and eight replications for weight measurements. Dry matter was measured on eight plants for leaf and stem, and statistical analysis was performed with an ANOVA followed by the Newman–Keuls test
