Mean mesocotyl lengths (in millimeters) ± ses of 30 maize inbred lines and the elm1 mutation (maintained in W22 germplasm). Subpopulation designations are given below the line name. Mesocotyls were measured in seedlings grown for 10 d under each continuous light treatment and ordered by length under W light. Each bar = line mean for a light treatment, including D, W, R, FR, and B. The inset table shows the correlations and corresponding significance levels for the inbred line means for all the light treatments.
