The Gy14 and yf leaf samples were collected from the 14th true leaves for TEM. Leaf samples of the 9930 WT and CsSRP43 CRISPR transgenic lines were collected from the second expanded leaf. These leaves were cut into small pieces of ~0.2 mm × 0.2 mm size and fixed in a 4.0% glutaraldehyde solution. Leaf samples were prepared for TEM according to Xiong et al. [67 (link)]. Finally, the samples were observed using a Tecnai G2 Spirit Bio (FEI, USA) transmission electron microscope.
