a Flowering time of FWA transgene T1 plants in the Col-0, nrpe1-11, mom1-3, pial1/2, mom2-2, aipp3-1 and phd1-2 genetic backgrounds. b Relative FWA mRNA level (upper panel) and relative FWA promoter DNA quantity after McrBC treatment (lower panel) of four late-flowering FWA transgene containing T1 plants in the mom1-3 and pial1/2 genetic backgrounds. FWA transgene containing T1 plants in the Col-0 and nrpe1-11 backgrounds were used as controls. Bar plots and error bars indicate the mean and standard error of three technical replicates, respectively, with individual technical replicates shown as dots. c Flowering time of FWA transgene T2 plants in the Col-0, nrpe1-11, mom1-3 and pial1/2 genetic backgrounds. For a, c, the numbers of independent plants (n) scored for each population and detailed statistics of flowering time comparison between different populations are listed in Supplementary Data 5. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
