A Phenotypes of flower droppings after emasculation at 10 days. B, C Microsection of a 10-day floral pedicel abscission zone after emasculation in RNAi plants and WT tomato. D, E Abscission rate; D Timing of floral abscission-zone explants of tomato flowers following exposure to 1/2 MS; E Timing of floral abscission-zone explants of tomato flowers following exposure to 1/2 MS with 50 μg/g IAA. F–I Root development in WT plants and three independent SlBL4 RNAi lines (L19, L22, and L23) assessed in two-week-old seedlings grown on 1/2 MS medium containing different concentrations of IAA (0, 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 μM). J The lengths of primary roots in the SlBL4 RNAi lines (L19, L22, and L23). K The lateral root numbers in the SlBL4 RNAi lines (L19, L22, and L23); WT wild type, RNAi-L19, RNAi-L22, and RNAi-L23 three different lines of SlBL4 RNAi plants. The asterisks indicate significant differences at P < 0.01 (**) as determined by the t-test
