Fig. 1: Touch and Local-FR-induced hyponasty have a similar phenotypic response but different genetic basis.

Differential petiole angle of Col-0 after 24 h (a, b) of touch and (b, c) local-FR treatment. n = 7 independent biological replicates for a, c. Differential petiole angle of Col-0 compared to (d, g) pif4pif5, (e, h) pif7, (f, i) pin3pin4pin7 and yuc2yuc5yuc8yuc9 mutants after 24 h of d–f touch and g–i local FR treatment. n = 8 biologically independent replicates for d–g and n = 7 biologically independent replicates h and i. The “W+FRtip” refers to the local FR treatment of the leaf tip and “Touch” refers to the touch treatment of the leaf tip with a gently positioned transparent tag next to the leaf. Data represent mean ± SE. Black dots represent the individual data. Different letters or asterisks indicate significant differences (two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc test or unpaired t test; p < 0.05).
