Haplotype analysis of OsSPL18. a Six haplotypes of SPL18 based on 26 SNPs observed in all assessed rice accessions. The schematic representation of SPL18 gene structure (upper) shows the promoter as a white box, exons as green boxes, and introns and intergenic regions as black lines. Thin black lines indicate the genomic position of each SNP. Haplotypes with fewer than 10 accessions are not shown. Yellow highlight indicates SNP alternatives. The SNP in red and bold is a non- synonymous SNP. ‘$1’ indicates a missense mutation from Gly to Val. ‘$2’ indicates a missense mutation from Thr to Met b–c Box plots for b panicle length based on the six haplotypes for SPL18 in 2017 and c OsSPL18 expression levels in different haplotypes relative to OsActin1. Boxes show median, and upper and lower quartiles. Whiskers extend to 1.5 × the interquartile range, with any remaining points indicated with dots. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001 (ANOVA). Letters indicate significant differences, P < 0.05 (Duncan’s multiple comparison test)
