The vascular anatomy of JING724 and JING724A1. X-ray microcomputed tomography scans of a JING724 and b JING724A1. The scale bar of 30 mm is at the bottom right of each figure. c The total number of vascular bundles (TNVB) of the two lines. Phloroglucinol-stained transverse sections of stalk from d JING724 and e JING724A1. The red bars indicate the thickness of sclerenchyma tissue. The scale bar of 100 μm has been marked in each figure. f Quantitative comparison of sclerenchyma thickness between the two lines
