Figure 6.
Histograms showing the Pos values for protoplasts from protonema and gametophores. The Pos values measured for 31 protoplasts from wild-type protonema (A) came from three different preparations. They had a diameter of: 30 ± 2.5 μm. The 36 protoplasts from wild-type gametophores (B) were from four different preparations. They had a diameter of 49.6 ± 7.8 μm. The 40 protoplasts from the pip2;1 gametophores (C) were from six different preparations. They had a diameter of 41.8 ± 4.4 μm. The 39 protoplasts from the pip2;2 gametophores (D) were from four different preparations. They had a diameter of 47.5 ± 8.5 μm. The 28 protoplasts from the pip2;3 gametophores (E) were from three different preparations. They had a diameter of 49.8 ± 5.6 μm. No correlation was found between Pos values and the diameter of the protoplasts from gametophore or protonema preparations. The diameter figures are given as mean ± sd; n is the number of protoplasts in each class.
