Fig. 5. Cytokinin increases miR172 abundance.

Fig. 5

a miR172 abundance in whole shoots of genotypes with an altered CK status compared to the wild type (n = 4 biological replicates). See also Supplementary Fig. 7a. Dots indicate each single biological replicate. b, c miR172 and MIR172 gene expression kinetics in 10-day-old SD-grown wild-type seedlings after treatment with 1 µM BA (n = 6 biological replicates). Transcript levels were determined by qRT-PCR. Data were normalized to TAFII15 (a, c) or TAFII15 and PP2AA2 (b). Data displayed are expressed as mean ± SEM. Asterisks indicate significant differences compared to the wild type of the respective time point (a) or compared to time point 0 (b, c), as calculated by one-way ANOVA, post-hoc Dunnett’s test (*p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001). d Number of leaves without abaxial trichomes in ahk2-5 ahk3-7 MIR172ox hybrid plants grown in SD. T1 plants shown in Supplementary Fig. 9 were used for the analysis. In box plots, the center line represents the median value and the boundaries indicate the 25th percentile (upper) and the 75th percentile (lower). The X marks the mean value. Whiskers extend to the largest and smallest value, excluding outliers which are shown as dots. Letters indicate significant differences between the genotypes, as calculated by Kruskal–Wallis test (q < 0.05). Exact p-values and q-values calculated for a–d are included in the Source Data files.
