Trichome number on the
adaxial surface of cauline leaves was >50 in 35S:SPL10SRDX
plants, while the average number in the wild type was 6.5
(n = 8). The increased number of trichomes was observed
even in a 35S:SPL10SRDX plant line with normal apical
dominance. Furthermore, trichome number on flowers
also increased in 35S:SPL10SRDX plants. In the wild type,
trichomes develop on sepals, and their number gradually
