Fig. 5

A Silencing of GhSUS2 in Gladiolus resulted in smaller corms than those observed in the control. The phenotype was observed four months after planting, and 17 representative lines are shown. Black scale bar = 1 cm. Silencing of GhSUS2 in Gladiolus reduced the corm diameter (B) and corm fresh weight (C). D. The cormel frequency in GhSUS2-silenced plants was lower than that in the control. B to D Averages of four biological repeats, ± SDs (n = 24). Significant differences were determined by the two-sided t-test. The P value is indicated above the black line
