Stigma exsertion and associated floral traits in L. esculentum cv. M82-1-8 and the L. pennellii introgression line IL2-5. M82 and IL2-5 differ for stigma exsertion and style length. (A) M82 has straight fused anthers vs. the loose and tip-curved anthers of IL2-5. Bars, 1 mm. (B) The measurements of style length, ovary length, and stamen length in M82 and IL2-5 in 2001 trial. Error bars represent 95% confidence interval. Note that M82 and IL2-5 significantly differ in stamen length (P < 0.0001). (C) The same measurements as B in 2002 trial. Note that the difference in stamen length between M82 and IL2-5 was not significant.
