In situ hybridization of OscFBP2 in the basal portions of the shoots. Longitudinal sections of the basal portions of the shoots were prepared from wild-type (WT) (a-c, g-i) and gs1;2 mutants (gs1;2) (d-f) rice grown hydroponically in the presence of 1 mM NH4Cl until the fourth leaf stage. The antisense probe for OscFBP2 transcript was hybridized using longitudinal sections of the shoot basal portions of wild-type (a-c) and gs1;2 (d-f) rice seedlings. The sense probe for OscFBP2 transcript was hybridized using sections of the shoot basal portions of wild-type (g-i) rice seedlings as a negative control. The phloem companion cells of the nodal vascular anastomoses (a, d, g), the internodal parenchyma cells (b, e, h), and the leaf sheath (c, f, i) are shown. The red arrowhead in (a) indicates the hybridization signal of the OscFBP2 transcript in the phloem companion cells of the nodal vascular anastomoses. Abbreviations: cc, companion cell; pc, parenchyma cell. Scale bars: 20 μm (a, b, d, e, g, h) and 50 μm (c, f, i)
