Phenotype of Col-0 and <i>pgm2/3</i> plants in 12 h light/12 h dark regime.

<p>A, Growth phenotypes. Photographs were taken of six-week-old plants. Bar = 1 cm. B, Fresh weight of plant rosettes. Values are means ± SD (n = 29−30). Plants were harvested after five weeks. Asterisks indicate significant difference from Col-0 (Student Test, P≤0.01). C, Leaf form from Col-0 and transgenic plants. Leaves were harvested from the middle of rosettes from six-week-old plants. Bar = 1 cm. D, Phosphoglucomutase activity in Col-0 and <i>pgm2/3</i> plants. Crude extracts were subjected to native PAGE and subsequent PGM activity staining. Separation gel was 7.5% [T] and 25 µg protein was loaded per lane.
