Nuclear size reduction is independent of seed dormancy. (A) Nuclear area of embryonic cotyledons of Ler, Col, Cvi-0, NIL-DOG1, dog1-1, dog1-2, rdo2-1, and hub1-2 during seed maturation at 10 DAP (black bars) and 20 DAP (gray bars). (B) Dormancy/germination behavior of Col (black squares) and linc1-1 linc2-1 (white triangles). Germination is expressed as percentage of germinated seeds after different periods of seed dry storage (days). (C) Nuclear area of fresh and dehydrated C. plantagineum leaves. Error bars represent SE; n ≥102 (B, n ≥23).
