Germination Rates of sly1 Mutant Seeds Varied but Were Dependent on Allele and Age of Seeds.

Seeds plated on MS-agar were incubated 3 d at 4°C followed by 7 d at 22°C. Percentage of germination was calculated based on cotyledon emergence for independent seed lots of: sly1-10 (A), sly1-2 (B), and sly1-t2 (C). Duration of dry storage or age of seed is indicated above the bars (months). N.G., none of the seeds germinated. Error bars show se (n = 3). Seed lot numbers (#) are indicated on the x axis.
