Figure 9.

The meristematic phenotype of epfl1,2,4,6 can be fully rescued by expression of EPFL1 or EPFL2 under endogenous promoters or by expression of EPFL1 under KAN promoter but not CLV3. Comparison of the SAM width (A) and the number of formed leaf primordia (B) in the wild type (WT), selected mutants as indicated and in independent transgenic lines expressing indicated constructs in epfl1,2,4,6 background as determined by DIC microscopy in 5-DPG seedlings. Bars represent the average; error bars represent sd. n = 7 to 14. Different letters indicate significant difference at P < 0.01, as determined by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post test.
