From: SlARF2a plays a negative role in mediating axillary shoot formation
Down-regulation of SlARF2a alters cotyledon and axillary shoot development.
The structure of the SlARF2aRNAi vector (a); relative SlARF2a expression levels in different SlARF2aRNAi lines (b); SlARF2aRNAi-2 and SlARF2aRNAi-5 promote the axillary shoot number (c); normal cotyledons in wild-type tomatoes (d); increased frequencies of triple and quadruple cotyledon phenotypes in SlARF2aRNAi lines (e). Error bars indicate the means ± SE. *Significant differences between transgenic and wild-type plants, with P < 0.05 determined using a t-test.
