Table 1. Proportion of normal ovule development in single ovary in two treatments.

Weeks after pollination	Developmental stage	Proportion of normal development ovule
		Pollinated	Unpollinated	p
1	Archesporium, megasporocyte	100%	100%
2–3	Megasporocyte, meiosis, functional megaspore	100%	100%
4–5	Uninucleate embryos sac, two-to eight-nucleate ES	67.67 ± 1.38%	42.24 ± 2.34%	<0.001***
6	Mature ES	53.53 ± 2.40%	16.55 ± 1.44%	<0.001***
7	Fertilization	20.36 ± 1.30%	0%	<0.001***

Note:

Data are means (±S.E) for 20 replicates (N = 20). Statistical comparisons were performed using the t test. T-test for all variables, ***p < 0.001.
