Fig. 8. Leaf morphogenesis defects in lmi1 mutants.
(A,B) ß-glucuronidase (GUS) expression driven by
LMI1 regulatory regions in (A) wild-type and (B) lfy-1 null
mutant. Scale bar: 1 mm. (C) Images of rosette leaves in
lmi1-1 compared with Col. Shown are early (leaf 9, top), intermediate
(leaf 13, center) and later (leaf 19, bottom) rosette leaves. Plants were
grown in short-day conditions. (D) Leaves grown and selected as in C
from lmi1-1 lfy-1 mutants. (E) Quantitative real-time PCR
analysis of BREVIPEDICELLUS (BP) expression in expanding leaves one and two of
11-day-old lmi1-1 compared with Col seedlings. Three technical
replicates of two biological replicates were each normalized using
ß-TUBULIN. Mean±s.e.m. is shown.
