Figure 1 Characteristics of N-PL. (A) Structure of N-PL. A-, B-, C-, and D-rings are indicated in 5-deoxystrigol. (B) Stability analysis of rac-N-PL at different pH values. Data are means ± SE (n = 3). (C and D) Effect of rac-N-PL on seed germination of S. hermonthica (C) and P. romosa (D). Data are represented as means ± SE from three replicates (P < 0.05, Tukey's honest significant difference [HSD] test). Values that have the same letter (a–g) are not significantly different. (E–G) Effect of rac-N-PL on tillering (E) and plant height in rice (F), and on shoot branching in Arabidopsis (G). rac-N-PL and rac-GR24 were applied at a concentration of 2.5 μM and 1 μM, respectively. Values ± SE are from 10 plants (P < 0.05, Tukey's HSD test). Different letters (a–c) represent significantly different means. (H) Effect of rac-N-PL on the number of hyphal apices branches in G. rosa. Data are represented as the mean number of newly formed apices ±SE (P < 0.05, Mann-Whitney's comparison test). Values sharing a letter do not differ significantly. (I) Effect of rac-N-PL on hypocotyl elongation in Arabidopsis. Data are represented as the mean length ±SE (P < 0.01, one-way ANOVA). Different letters indicate significant difference between treatments. All GR24 and N-PL used in our experiments were racemic mixtures.
