Fig. 1: Cloning of the Lfy1 mutant.

a Pictures of CO412 (Lfy1 mutant) and Z58 plants. The arrows indicate the ears, Bar = 15 cm; b Sequence comparisons of the Lfy1 locus among B73, Z58, and Lfy1 mutant. The blue and red boxes indicate coding genes and the Copia LTR-RT, respectively. Gray lines indicate the same sequences between different genotypes; c Expression level of genes within 100 kb up- and down streams of the LTR-RT. The expression data were from the transcriptome analysis of NILB-Lfy1 and NILB73 three times independently. The error bars indicate mean ± SD. A two-tailed Student’s t-test was used to determine P-values between genotypes. ND, not detected (Fragments Per Kilobase Million (FPKM) < 0.5). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
