TEMs control expression and binds in vivo to the regulatory regions of several trichome initiation genes. A, Relative expression of GA and CK pathway genes in TEM mutants and over-expressors 5 DAB. One representative of three biological replicates is shown with error bars of three qPCR replicates. B, Relative enrichment of the regulatory regions of GL1, GIS2, ZFP8, and GL2 after immuno-precipitation of TEM1 or TEM2 followed by a qRT PCR in plant collected 5 DAB. One representative of two biological replicates shown with error bars of three qPCR replicates. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences (* P ≤ 0.05, ** P ≤ 0.01, *** P ≤ 0.001) obtained using Student’s t test.
