Segregation Analysis of GPT1/gpt1-1 and GPT1/gpt1-2
Genotype | Kanr/PCR+ | Kans/PCR− | Ratio | χ2 (P) |
---|---|---|---|---|
GPT1/gpt1-1 | 190 | 222 | 0.9:1 | 2.5 (P = 0.01) |
GPT1/gpt1-2 | 176 | 217 | 0.8:1 | 4.2 (P = 0.01) |
The inheritance of gpt1-1 was analyzed by counting kanamycin-resistant seedlings recovered from selfed GPT1/gpt1-1 plants. The inheritance of gpt1-2 was monitored using a PCR-based assay as described in Methods. The χ2 test was used to compare the observed ratios with a predicted ratio of 1:1. Kanr, kanamycin resistant; Kans, kanamycin sensitive.
