Seed-specific interfering phenotypes and statistics of pOsTip3::OsMADS1-RNAi lines. a-g Grain shape and phenotypes of T2 pOsTip3::OsMADS1-RNAi lines (T3-Ri-5, T3-Ri-9 and T3-Ri-12) in comparison with grains of the negative control (NC) line. d-g Enlarged view of representative grains of negative control line (d), T3-Ri-5 (e), T3-Ri-9 (f) and T3-Ri-12 (g) lines, which corresponding to red (d), orange (e), green (f) and blue (g) rectangles in a, respectively. Arrowhead indicates a crack formed by incompletely closed glume in one side of a grain (e-g). h-j Shape and phenotypes of brown rice of pOsTip3::OsMADS1-RNAi lines (T3-Ri-5, T3-Ri-9 and T3-Ri-12) in comparison with that of the negative control line. k Comparison of cracking glume rate between pOsTip3::OsMADS1-RNAi lines and the negative control line. l Comparison of grain length, grain width, grain thickness, brown rice length, brown rice width and brown rice thickness between pOsTip3::OsMADS1-RNAi lines and the negative control line. m-p Comparison of grain length-to-width ratio (m), brown rice length-to-width ratio (n), 1000-grain weigh (o) and 1000-brown rice weight (p) between pOsTip3::OsMADS1-RNAi lines and negative control line. Bars: (a-j) 5 mm. Data presented are mean values ± SDs [n = 27 plants for each line in k; n = 24 plants for each line in l-p.]. Student’s t-test: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
