Phenotypic suppression is established during the M1 generation in EMS-treated bal and cpr1 mutants. (A) Leaf phenotypes of mock- and EMS-treated bal variants. Straight and curved arrows indicate intermediately curled and crescent-shape leaves, respectively. (B) Phenotypes in two EMS-treated bal variants in the flower developmental stage. The arrowhead indicates one example of a thick and tall stem in EMS-treated bal variant. Note that the EMS-treated sibling plant on the right did not develop tall stems. (C) Leaf phenotypes of mock- and EMS-treated cpr1 mutants. Curved arrows indicate crescent-shape leaves. The plant in the yellow circle later developed a wild-type sector as shown in panel D. (D) Phenotypes of EMS-treated cpr1 mutants with or without wild-type sectors in the flower developmental stage. The plant in the yellow circle is the same plant in the yellow circle shown in panel C. Scale bar: 1 cm. Plants in panels A and C: 3.5-week old. Plants in panels B and D: 5-week old.
