From: SlARF2a plays a negative role in mediating axillary shoot formation
Tissue-specific expression of SlARF2a assessed in transgenic tomatoes expressing a GUS reporter gene driven by the SlARF2a promoter (PSlARF2a::GUS).
The structure of the PSlARF2a::GUS vector (a); GUS staining patterns in germinated PSlARF2a::GUS seeds (2 days old) (b); GUS staining patterns in germinated DR5::GUS seeds (2 days old) (c); GUS staining patterns in the flowers of PSlARF2a::GUS plants at anthesis (d); pollen showed strong blue staining (e); MG was expressed in fruits and the staining was mainly distributed in the vascular tissues and seeds (f); major GUS staining was noted in the leaf trichomes (g); GUS staining in the initial lateral root site (h); PSlARF2a::GUS expression in the lateral root and vascular root network (i); PSlARF2a::GUS expression in the vascular stem network (j); PSlARF2a::GUS expression in the axillary shoot (k).
