Extended Data Fig. 5: Growth defects observed in the CACG mutants.

a, Morphological phenotypes of 40-day-old plants. Scale bar, 1 cm. b, Statistical analyses of plant height of 40-day-old plants (n = 20, left), fresh weight of 20-day-old plants (n = 20, middle), and primary root length of 12-day-old plants (n = 20, right). Values are mean ± SD. P values were determined by two-tailed Student’s t-test. c, Phenotypic observation of siliques from 40-day-old plants (left) and rosette leaves from 28-day-old plants (right) in CACG mutants. Scale bar, 1 cm. d, Statistical analysis of the silique length in 40-day-old plants. Values are mean ± SD. P values were determined by two-tailed Student’s t-test. e, Statistical analysis of CACG mutant growth rates. Seedlings were initially cultivated in solid MS for 12 days before transferring to soil. The daily count of rosette leaves was recorded after transplanting (n = 20). Values are mean ± SD.
