Phenotypes of OsbZIP48^KD lines and the T-DNA insertion mutant of OsbZIP48. A, T1 OsbZIP48^KD lines showing profuse root growth at the seedling stage as compared with the wild type (WT). B and C, T1 OsbZIP48^KD plants at the vegetative stage showing increased height at two different magnifications; note the elongated stem of OsbZIP48^KD plants in B. D, T2 OsbZIP48^KD transgenics showing two types of plants; seedlings of the 10-d-old wild type, pANDA vector control (VC), and T2 OsbZIP48^KD transgenics grown in white light (75 μmol m⁻² s⁻¹). E, T2 OsbZIP48^KD 10-d-old transgenics showing a lethal phenotype in multiple lines. F, Photograph of 15-d-old wild-type and OsbZIP48 mutant lines showing their phenotypes. G, T-DNA insertional mutant plants showing profuse rooting (at higher magnification).
