a Early heading of AcRR1-OE lines. Scale bar, 10 cm. b Days to heading of the Fielder and AcRR1-OE lines. c Days to heading of the AcRR1-KNOE and AcRR1-KNCOM lines. d Accelerated spike differentiation in AcRR1-OE lines. Scale bar, 100 μm. e Days to heading of the AcRR1-KNOE and AcRR1-KNCOM lines under different vernalization conditions that were calculated after sowing. The figure was drawn using the mean value, SD and n. f Heading of the AcRR1-KNOE and AcRR1-KNCOM lines under spring sowing conditions in the field. Scale bar, 10 cm. g qRT‒PCR analysis of flowering regulators in Fielder and AcRR1-OE leaves at the double ridge stage. The data are presented as the means ± S.D.s. In (b, c), n represents the number of biologically independent replicates. In (g), n = 3 biologically independent replicates. Boxes represent the median values and the first and third quartiles; whiskers represent the minimum and maximum values. A two-tailed Student’s t test was used to determine P values. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
