Table III. Pairwise comparison of spikelet fertility between T1 plants transformed with site-directed mutant constructs and nontransgenic controls.
Significant differences in spikelet fertility between transgenic and nontransgenic plants within the T1 generation are indicated at P < 0.05 (*) and P < 0.01 (**).
