Genetic complementation of the tro-1 mutation
| Plant number | Normal | Aborted | Percentage | Expected percentage | P-valuea |
| 1 | 159 | 7 | 4.19 | 6.25 | 0.3 |
| 2 | 107 | 4 | 3.66 | 6.25 | 0.3 |
| 3 | 114 | 4 | 3.44 | 6.25 | 0.3 |
| 4 | 100 | 6 | 5.60 | 6.25 | 0.7 |
| 5 | 172 | 7 | 3.86 | 6.25 | 0.3 |
χ2 tests were performed to evaluate the genetic complementation of the tro-1 mutation.
a
P-value of ≥0.05 was considered consistent with the hypothesis that 6.25% of the seeds abort as expected for single copy transgene complementation of heterozygous mutant (Stacey et al., 2002).
