Effect of overexpression of VcDDF1 on blueberry plant growth and development. a Growth of 4-year old plants of ‘Legacy’ and ‘Legacy-VcDDF1-OX’ (herein VcDDF1-OX: a representative transgenic ‘Legacy-VcDDF1’ used for freezing tolerance assay [51] and RNA-seq analysis). b Average plant height and number of canes of 4-year old plants. Legacy: non-transgenic southern highbush cultivar ‘Legacy’, three plants. VcDDF1: transgenic ‘Legacy’ containing the VcDDF1, three plants for each of the 11 independent transgenic events. VcDDF1-OX: one representative transgenic Legacy-VcDDF1 event, three plants. c Average number of floral bud for 1- to 3-year old plants including 12 plants for each of ‘Legacy’ and ‘VcDDF1-OX’. d Flowering of four-year old plants (five plants for each treatment) after receiving different amount of chilling.
