From: GNS4, a novel allele of DWARF11, regulates grain number and grain size in a high-yield rice variety
Agronomic traits of GNS4-overexpressing lines in high-yield variety Wuyunjing 7 (WYJ7) background. a GNS4 mRNA expression level of WYJ7, WYJ-OE1 and WYJ-OE2 plants. The expression level of the rice Actin gene was amplified as a control. Values are means ± s.e. of three independent experiments. b-j: Agronomic traits of WT and transgenic lines. b Plant height. c Grain number per panicle. d Panicle number per plant. e 1000-grain weight. f Grain length. g Grain width. h Grain thickness. i Biomass yield per plant. j Grain yield per plant. Traits were measured at the mature stage. Data are given as means ± s.e. (n ≥ 10). Significant at ***0.1%, **1% and *5%. NS, not significant. WYJ-OE1 and WYJ-OE2 are two independent GNS4-overexpressing lines
