Summary of inflorescence and flower no. data^a

Mean	fw2.2Le	fw2.2Lp	Pb
No. of inflorescences per plant	51.63	69.25	<0.0001
No. of FPIc	5.51	5.00	0.09
Fruit set per inflorescenced	3.71	3.87	0.32
Red fruit per inflorescence	2.45	2.59	0.34
Green fruit per inflorescence	1.27	1.27	0.95
Missing flowers per inflorescencee	1.80	1.13	0.002

The NIL carrying the small-fruit allele at fw2.2, fw2.2_Lp, produced significantly more inflorescences per plant, fewer flowers per inflorescence, and fewer missing flowers per inflorescence.

^a Data from 10 pairs of plants in the 1999 field trial. 

^b P value from paired Student's t test for the difference of means between the two lines. 

^c The sum of nos. of red fruit, green fruit, and missing flowers. 

^d The sum of the nos. of red and green fruit. 

^e Pedicel visible on inflorescence, but having no attached flower or fruit.
