Fig. 3From: Modification of Threonine-1050 of SlBRI1 regulates BR Signalling and increases fruit yield of tomatoDephosphorylation of Thr-1050 alters fruit quality. a Fruit shape index at the breaker stage. b Fruit firmness at yellow ripening (YR) and red ripening (RR) stages. c and (d) Contents of total ascorbic acid (AsA) (c) and reduced AsA (d). e, (f), (g) and (h) Contents of fructose (e), glucose (f), malic acid (g), and citric acid (h) measured using HPLC. Date for (a) and (b) are the means ± SDs of 15 independent biological samples; data for (c) to (h) are the means ± SDs of 3 independent biological samples. FW = fresh weight. Asterisks indicate significant differences compared with PSlBRI1::SlBRI1-GFP plants (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; Student’s t-test)Back to article page
