Loss-of-function in WRKY53 can improve CTB stage without yield penalty. A–E, Agronomic traits scored in LJ11 and wrky53 plants grown in a paddy field under LT or NCs at the booting stage. Data are shown as means ± se (n = 30 in A–D and n = 3 in E). Each dot represents the result from one biological replicate. Significant differences are indicated by different lowercase letters (P < 0.05, one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s significant difference test). F, G, and H, Panicles (F), seed setting (G), and relative seed setting rate (H) of DHX2 and w53-DHX2 plants grown under NC or after 4 days of LT treatment. Data are shown as means ± se (n = 11). I, J, and K, Panicles (I), seed setting (J), and relative seed setting rate (K) of Longdao16 (LD16) and w53-LD16 plants grown under NC or after 4 days of LT treatment. Data are shown as means ± se (n = 12). Scale bar, 1 cm (F, I). Each dot represents the result from one biological replicate. P-values were calculated by Student’s t test: **P < 0.01.
