Phenotype

resemble wild-type plants that have been repeatedly treated with G.A.; long hypocotyls, erect rosette leaves, light green colour, early flowering and parthenocarpy; stem elongation is increased caused primarily by an increase in the number of nodes; partial male sterility (greatly reduced at 18C), altered gibberellin signal transduction and resistant to the gibberellin (G.A.) biosynthesis inhibitor paclobutrazol.
