The pleiotropic effects of pcfs4 mutant on Arabidopsis development. Shown on individual panels are wild type Col (left hand side) and mutant pcfs4-1 (right hand side). The mutant showed a variety of aberrant morphologies including smaller seedlings (A), down-curved leaf shape, delayed flowering (B), and altered inflorescence phyllotaxy (C). The embedded seedlings within panel A were a detailed look with equal magnification. The arrows within panel C point to the siliques forming a larger angle with the stem. Pictures were taken at 10, 40, 50 days after germination, respectively, for (A), (B) and (C).
