Cross (♀ × ♂) | Wild Typea | TCTP/tctpa | χ2 (1:1)b |
---|---|---|---|
TCTP/TCTP × TCTP/tctp | 496 (93.2%) | 36 (6.8%) | 397.74c |
TCTP/tctp × TCTP/TCTP | 290 (53.2%) | 255 (46.8%) | 2.25d |
Transmission of the tctp mutant allele through the female gametophyte is unaffected, whereas transmission through the male gametophyte is greatly impaired.
Number of Basta-sensitive (wild type) and resistant (TCTP/tctp) plants.
χ2 values for a Mendelian 1:1 ratio.
χ2(1/0,001) = 10.823.
χ2(1/0,1) = 2.71.
