Inflorescence phenotype and fruit yield of transgenic tomato plants. A Inflorescence phenotype of the WT tomato and representative SlCOL1-overexpression (SlCOL1-OE) and SlCOL1 RNAi (SlCOL1-RNAi) lines. B Total fruit yield of the WT tomato and three representative lines each of SlCOL1-OE and SlCOL1-RNAi. C Number of nodes under the first inflorescence in the WT tomato and three representative lines each of SlCOL1-OE and SlCOL1-RNAi eight weeks after planting. D-E Total fruits (D) and flowers (E) per plant at different developmental stages. Three representative lines of SlCOL1-OE and SlCOL1-RNAi each were chosen for measurements. For (B) to (E), eighteen representative plants from each of the three independent transgenic lines and eighteen representative WT plants were selected for evaluation. The average value of each trait from 6 individual plants was used for statistical comparisons. Statistically significant differences between the mean values were determined using t-tests and are represented by asterisks: **, P < 0.01
