Shoot branching in CKX2-overexpressing plants is dependent on functional LS and linked to BRC1 repression. A. Representative phenotype of plants of MT, CKX2-OE#2, ls mutant and the double transgenic-mutant CKX2-OE, ls. B to E. Longitudinal shoot section of MT (B), CKX2-OE#2 (C), ls (D) and CKX2-OE, ls (E) leaf axil; bar = 2 mm. F. Expression levels of SlBRC1a and SlBRC1b in axillary buds (0.5 to 1.0 cm) harvested from the 3rd and 4th nodes of vegetative plants of MT and CKX2-OE#2. Data are means ± se of three biological samples. Statistical comparisons shown were made between the MT and transgenic line (Student’s t-test; P < 0.05)
