(n) Number of plants examined.
a
Cotyledons, petiole of fifth leaves, and fifth rosette leaves were measured at the fully expanded stage, and hypocotyls and internodes were measured at the mature stage.
b
Plants were grown on agar plates and then hypocotyls were measured.
c
Type 2 metamer + type 3 metamer.
