GFP 40.6 ± 4.3 50 (20.3) 14 (5.7) 36 (14.6)
CycD3;3-GFP 36.6 ± 4.4 37 (13.5) 27 (9.9) 36 (13.2)
T191A-GFP 41.4 ± 7.6 48 (19.9) 14 (5.8) 38 (15.7)

The doubling time of tobacco BY-2 cells transformed with each construct were determined by measuring cell numbers. Data shown are means ± sd obtained from at least four sampling times with three independent samples for each time point. The percentage of cells in G1-, S-, and G2/M-phases was determined by LSC analysis. The data presented are a representative sample of many experiments. Mean times for each cell cycle phase were calculated assuming that all cells in the culture were cycling and are shown in hours.
