Growth differences of ‘Yugu1’ and ‘An04’ plants under well-watered conditions. (A) Comparison of agronomic traits between ‘An04’ and ‘Yugu1’. Five individual plants per cultivar were measured for each agronomic trait. (B) Comparisons of expression levels of key regulatory genes in brassinosteroid (BR) biosynthesis between ‘An04’ and ‘Yugu1’ using qPCR. Four BR marker genes, SiSMT1 (Gene ID: Seita.2G079200), SiDWF4 (Seita.7G132100), SiDWF1.1 (Seita.4G289300) and SiDWF1.2 (Seita.9G429800) were used in the qPCR experiment. Error bars represent standard errors of the mean (n = 6). (C) BR content in ‘Yugu1’ and ‘An04’ plants. Seedlings from Yugu1.CL and An04.CL groups were used for BR measurements. The data presented are the means of six replications. P values were calculated using Welch’s two-sample t-test.
