Phenotypic characterization of WT, fgl, and OPAO T2 plants grown under natural paddy field conditions. a-c Plants in a paddy field at 90 (a), 95 (b), and 100 (c) days after sowing (DAS). d Leaf blades of the main culms. Samples were obtained from the fourth leaves of plants at 105 DAS. Roman numerals below the panels indicate leaf position: e.g. I, youngest leaves (upper position); V, oldest leaves (lower position). Scale bar = 2 cm (d). e-g Total Chl contents (e), Chl a/b ratio (f), and total Car contents (g). The pigments were extracted from distal region of the fourth leaves at 105 DAS. The data were obtained from 10 independent samples, and different letters above the bars indicate significantly different values (Duncan’s test, P < 0.01) (e-g)
