Figure 1. Comparison of grain size and dry weight accumulation
between wildtype (WYJ8) plant and RGB1 RNA-interfered transgenic
lines.
(a) Immunoblot analysis of the transgenic plants. Total
proteins are extracted from the panicles, and 10 μg protein was used for
western blotting. (b) Grain morphology (size and shape). Scale
bar: 15 mm. (c-f) Comparison of grain size and weight between
wild type (WYJ8 ) and RGB1 RNA-interfered transgenic lines:(c) Grain length; (d) Grain width; (e) Grain
thickness; (f) 1000-grain weight. (g) The grain starch
content. (h) The changes of caryopsis morphology at different
days after flowering. (i) Changes of grain weight during
grain-filling. Data are shown as means ± SDs (n = 15).
