Extended Data Fig. 6: Expression of GhSUT4, GhCYCD2;1, and GhZAT11 is upregulated in growth-transited cormels.

a, c, e, mRNA in situ hybridization of GhSUT4 (a), GhCYCD2;1 (c), and GhZAT11 (e) in dormant and growth-transited cormels. The signal was light red/ purple, and the sense probe was a negative control without a hybridization signal. Scale bars, 200 μm. The sense probe is the same as that used in Fig. 2m,n and Fig. 6d. b, d, f, Expression of GhSUT4 (b), GhCYCD2;1 (d), and GhZAT11 (f) in dormant and growth-transited cormels. Data are shown as mean ± s.d. (n = 3 cormels, 3 biological replicates). Different letters indicate significant differences according to one-way ANOVA with LSD’s multiple comparisons test (P = 0.0001). LSP (purple asterisks): leaf sheath primordia; SAM (black asterisks): shoot apical meristem; VB (purple arrow): vascular bundle. 0 w indicates dormant cormels (cold storage for 0 week); 8 w indicates growth transition cormels (cold storage for 8 weeks).
