Figure 3. Cell-Type-Specific BZR1 Activities Modulate Normal Root Development.

(A–D and G–K) Confocal microscopic analysis of root tips of Col, bri1-116/bzr1-1D, bri1-116, and transgenic lines expressing bzr1-1D-YFP under the indicated cell-type-specific promoters in bri1-116 background.
(E, F, and L) Quantification of meristem zone length, elongation zone length, mature cell length (E), root length (F), and QC layers (L). (n > 20, mean ± SD).
*p < 0.001, as determined by a Student's t test. Arrows indicate transition zone. Arrowheads indicate QC cell layer (I–K). Scale bars represent 50 μm.
