Fig. 2: Phenotype of re-6-knockout mutants and subcellular localization of RE1 and RER1.
From: RETICULATA1 is a plastid-localized basic amino acid transporter
a, Photos of 4-week-old Col-0, re-6, rer1-1, rer1-2 and rer1-3 plants. Scale bar, 2 cm. b, Photos of 7-week-old Col-0, re-6 and re-6 × rer1 (−/+) plants. Scale bars, 2 cm. c,d, Length of mature siliques (c) and number of seeds per mature silique (d) harvested from Col-0, re-6 and re-6 × rer1 (−/+) plants. Data are presented as box and whiskers (minimum to maximum) of at least 78 biological replicates. Different letters indicate statistically significant differences between means (P < 0.05; one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Tukey’s test). The box plots show the median (horizontal line), interquartile range (box) and whiskers extending to 1.5× the interquartile range. Exact P values are shown in source data with 95% confidence intervals. e,f, Localization of RE1 (e) and RER1 (f) GFP fusion constructs (green) with chlorophyll autofluorescence (magenta) in Nicotiana benthamiana protoplasts isolated 2 days after infiltration. Scale bars, 5 µm.
