Figure 6. Culm diameter and section modulus in NIL-SCM2 in comparison with Koshihikari and Habataki.
(a) Comparisons of diameter in major and minor axes from the neck node and the first (I: panicle-neck internode) to the fifth (V: basal internode) internodes among Koshihikari, NIL-SCM2 and Habataki. Orange bars: Koshihikari, blue bars: NIL-SCM2, red bars: Habataki. Each column represents mean±s.d. (three replicates). (b) Comparisons of section modulus from the first to the fourth internodes among Koshihikari, NIL-SCM2 and Habataki. Orange bars: Koshihikari, blue bars: NIL-SCM2, red bars: Habataki. Each column represents mean±s.d. (three replicates). ***P<0.001; **P<0.01; *P<0.05 versus Koshihikari (Dunnett's multiple comparison test).
