mRNA in Situ Hybridization Pattern of gif1.

(A), (B), and (E) to (I) Hybridizations with a gif1 antisense probe.

(A) Wild-type shoot meristem. Arrow at the margin of a leaf primordium.

(B) gif1-1 shoot meristem.

(C) and (D) Expression domains of msca1 in wild-type (C) and gif1-1 (D) shoot meristem. Arrow indicates the future leaf primordium expressing msca1.

(E) and (F) Immature tassels of the wild type.

(G) to (I) Immature tassels of gif1-1.

(J) to (M) Hybridizations with a ramosa2 (ra2) antisense probe.

(J) and (K) Immature tassels of wild type (J) and gif1-1 (K).

(L) and (M) Immature ears of wild type (L) and gif1-1(M).

(N) Hybridization of a wild-type inflorescence with a gif1 sense probe.
