A–J(A, F) 52‐day‐old (A), or 25‐day‐old plants (F) of the genotypes indicated grown in LDs. Scale bars: 5 cm. (B, C, G, H) The time to flowering and the number of rosette leaves at the time of flowering of the genotypes shown in (A) (for B and C), (F) (for G and H); the numbers indicate independent transgenic lines. The letters “a” to “c” indicate statistically significant differences between flowering time and leaf numbers of the indicated genotypes. (D, E, I, J) qPCR results showing mRNA expression of CIB1, CO, FT in the genotypes indicated. The numbers indicate independent transgenic lines. The transcript levels of CIB1 or CO or FT in Col were set to 1.0. Samples were collected from 7‐day‐old LD‐grown seedlings at ZT16. In (B, C, G, H), data are presented as mean ± SD, n ≥ 15 per genotypes indicated. P ≤ 0.05 (Tukey's HSD test). For data in (D, E, I, J), error bars indicate standard error within three biological replicates and for each of these two technical replicates were performed.
