Phenotypes of AtSWEET4 transgenic plants.

Phenotypes of 10-day-old seedlings of AtSWEET4-RNAi transgenic line RNAi4-8 (A), wild-type Col-0 (B) and AtSWEET4 overexpression line OE4-4 (C). Phenotypes of 3-week-old plants of RNAi4-8 (D), Col-0 (E) and OE 4-4 (F) grown in soil. (G) Mature leaves of RNAi4-8 showed chlorosis in the vein network. Scale bars: 1 cm. (H) Dry weight of leaves from Col-0, RNAi4-8 and OE4-4. Thirty leaves were collected from each type of plants, the area and weight were measured for each leaf, after drying at 85 °C in oven for two days, each leaf was weighed again. Data represent the mean ± SE (n = 3), *p value < 0.05, t-test.
