JcMADS40 regulates grain size. a Grains from wild-type (WT) and JcMADS40 overexpressed crops. Scale bar, 1 cm. b Grain length in WT and JcMADS40 overexpressed crops. c Grain width in WT and JcMADS40 overexpressed crops. d 1000-grain weight. e Yield per plant. All statistical results in b-e were calculated on plants grown at a spacing of 16 × 20 spacing in paddies under non-stress conditions. Data presented in (b), (c), (d) and (e) are the means of n = 30 ± SD (the double asterisks indicate P < 0.01 from the Duncan test). f Levels of seed-size-lated genes transcript. Each assay contained three biological replicates, and each contained two technical replicates (means of n = 6 ± SD; significant differences from controls (p < 0.01) are displayed with double asterisks above the bars)
