Effect of after-ripening on dormancy release of wild-type and HvABA8′OH1 RNAi transgenic grains. D (A, C, E, and G) and AR (B, D, F, and H) grains from wild-type (A and B) and RNAi lines (C–H) were imbibed for 4 d under continuous white light or dark. The AR grains had been AR for 1 month at 37°C. Measurements are averages of four replicates with error bars representing the se of the mean. A and B, Wild-type Golden Promise grains (GP). C and D, Null (N) and transgenic (T) grains from line 6. E and F, Null (N) and transgenic (T) grains from line 18. G and H, Null (N) and transgenic (T) grains from line 26.
