P19 effect on indel formation in Cas9/sgRNA infiltrated plants of different ages. (a) Photos of 16c plants infiltrated with TRBO-HcoCas9 and TRBO-G-3′gGFP at the age of 3 weeks (3-wk) or 5 weeks (5-wk) taken at 10 dpi. (b,d) BsgI restriction enzyme resistance assays of 3-wk-old and 5-wk-old 16c plants, respectively, co-infiltrated with either TRBO-HcoCas9 or pHcoCas9 expression constructs both with and without P19 and/or TRBO-G-3′gGFP. At 10 dpi samples were

taken from 16c plants that were treated either at the age of 3-wk or 5-wk. The red arrow indicates indel-containing DNA. The average and standard deviation (varying between ± 2.2 and ± 8) of indel percentages of 3-wk treated plants were calculated based on three independent biological replicates. However, for the 5-wk plants the compilations were more complicated and such analyses were not performed so they are only indicative of a trend and not of absolute differences. (c,e) Western blot showing Cas9 protein accumulation (164-kDa) corresponding to P19 protein expression (19-kDa) at 7 dpi in 3-wk and 5-wk-old infiltrated 16c plants.
