... May to September in 2018. For cytological analysis, RNA-seq, and metabolomics experiments, green leaves 355 and mutant leaves were sampled separately on July (Fig. 8a-f). For physiological and RT-qPCR experiments, 356 mutant leaves and green leaves collected at three stages (May to September) were used. At least 10 tender leaves 357 at the third position from the top of a branch were sampled from three plants of each type, immediately frozen in 358 liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80C for further ...
