Figure S1. Phylogenetic tree of SmGRAS5 transcription factor. The
phylogenetic tree was constructed by the maximum-likelihood method of
MEGA 6.0. Members in the same sub-branch were marked by a circle filled
with the same color.
Figure S2. Transactivation activity of SmGRAS5. Yeast AH109 containingpGBKT7-53+pGADT7-T (positive control), pGBKT7 (negative
control) and SmGRAS5-pGBKT7 were spotted onto SD/-Trp and
SD/-Trp-His-Ade medium, respectively.
Figure S3. Verification of positive hairy roots lines by using PCR. PCR
screening of SmGRAS5 overexpressing or antisense expressing
lines.

lines.
Figure S5. GA induces SmGRAS5 responses.
(A) Relative quantitative analyzes the expression of SmGRAS5 with 100 μM
GA treatment for 2/24 h. (B) Promoter analysis of the GA response
element of SmGRAS5.
Figure S6. Y1H assay of SmGRAS5 and SmCPS1 promoter.SmCPS1 promoter+pGADT7 as the negative control andSmCPS1 promoter+pGADT7-SmERF6 as the positive control.
Figure S7. Purified MBP protein and SmGRAS5 protein with MBP label were
verified via Western blot. M: protein marker.
Figure S8. EMSA analysis of the interaction of SmGRAS5 with the promoter
of GA biosynthesis genes.
(A) EMSA analysis of the interaction of SmGRAS5 with CPS5 promoter. (B)
EMSA analysis of the interaction of SmGRAS5 with KS promoter. (C) EMSA
analysis of the interaction of SmGRAS5 with GA3ox1 promoter.
Figure S9. Validating the different expression levels of the identified
genes from RNA-seq data by qRT-PCR. Expression of the representative
GA-responsive genes in the RNA-seq experiments of G5O14. The expression
of genes in the untreated ATCC hairy roots lines was set to 1. Standard
errors were calculated from three sets of biological replicates.
Significant differences using one-way ANOVA and S-N-K comparison tested,P < 0.05.
