Induction of expansin expression leads to leaf initiation and reversed phyllotaxis
| Plant line | Treatment | Apices analyzed | Leaf initiation | Reverse phyllotaxy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| E1.7 | + | 73 | 14 | 14 |
| − | 26 | 0 | 0 | |
| E1.8 | + | 55 | 10 | 10 |
| − | 28 | 0 | 0 | |
| G25 | + | 49 | 0 | 1 |
| − | ND | ND | ND |
Meristems were induced on I2 position with Ahtet (+) or treated with buffer (−). The number showing novel leaf initiation and reversed phyllotaxis was counted. ND, not determined.
