Ectopic expression of <i>RcMADS1</i> causes early flowering in <i>Arabidopsis</i>.

<p>(A) Representative plants from independent transgenic lines showing different flowering times (plant1 WT, plant2 EL4, plant3 EL2 and plant4 EL8). (B) The flowering time of plants in (A) indicated by rosette leaf numbers at bolting. Data are mean ± s.d. from 20 plants of each line. (C) Flowering time comparison of EL8 with WT, <i>35S::AGL24</i> and <i>35S::SVP.</i> Data are mean ± s.d. from 20 plants of each genotype. Asterisks indicate significantly different means (P≤0.05) according to Student’s <i>t</i>-Test. Scale bar = 1cm.
