Fig. 5

a qRT-PCR analysis showing FWA expression level relative to fwa-4 (left panel) in three independent ZF108-MORC7 T1 plants that displayed early flowering phenotype. Leaf numbers of these plants are indicated below the bar graph. McrBC analysis with the FWA promoter of the same plants is shown in the right panel. Error bars represent the mean ± s.d. of 3 technical replicates. b Flowering time of Col-0, fwa-4, and T2 progenies of the three early flowering T1 plants shown in a. c qRT-PCR of FWA expression level relative to WT (top) and McrBC analysis of the FWA promoter (bottom) of one representative plant in each T2 line displayed in b. Error bars represent the mean ± s.d. of 3 technical replicates. Source data underlying Fig. 5 are provided as a Source Data file.
