Rhythmic Expression Patterns of Heading Date-Related Genes in Wild-Type, haf1, oself3, and haf1 oself3 Lines under LD Conditions.

Diurnal expression patterns of OsELF3 (A), OsGI (B), Hd1 (C), Ghd7 (D), Ehd1 (E), and RFT1 (F) in different genetic backgrounds. The expression levels are relative to UBQ mRNA. In all panels, the mean of each point is based on the average of three biological repeats (RNA samples were from three separate plants) calculated using the relative quantification method. Error bars indicate standard deviations. White and black bars represent subjective days and nights, respectively. ZT, Zeitgeber time. ZT = 0 is defined as the time of lights on; numbers represent hours after ZT0 that the sample was harvested.
