Extended Data Fig. 8: Arabidopsis ERF12 affects axillary meristem formation in cauline leaves.
From: Improving bread wheat yield through modulating an unselected AP2/ERF gene
a, CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutations in the ERF12 gene. The position and sequence of target site for CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing were indicated. The symbols ‘+’ showed the nucleotide insertion, and the base numbers of insertion were shown behind. nt, nucleotide. b, Close-up view of leaf axils in Arabidopsis Col-0 and erf12 mutants showing the presence (white arrow) and absence (red arrow) of an accessory bud, respectively. Scale bars, 5 mm. c, Schematic representation of accessory bud formation in leaf axils of Col-0 and three independent erf12 lines. Green indicates the lack of an accessory bud from an axillary branch, and red shows the presence of an accessory bud.
