Fig. 1 Aromatic metabolite profiles of seeds derived from field-grown HW lines. Seed extracts of HW1, HW5, and Nipponbare were analysed by reversed-phase HPLC with detection at 280 nm. The traces in the inset are shown at higher magnification in the main panel. The arrow indicates the peak corresponding to Trp.

Fig. 2 IAA and Trp contents of seeds derived from field-grown HW lines. The amounts of IAA (A) and free Trp (B) were quantitated in the same seeds of HW1, HW5, or Nipponbare (NB) plants. Data are expressed as nanomoles of analyte per gram of dry seed weight and are means ±SD of values determined from three groups of six seeds.
