Figure 4. Bay and Sha alleles at CLR.2 diversely complement kcs18-1 mutant.

CLR was determined for each of the four allelic combinations obtained in F1 seeds, generated by crossing arHIF196_[Bay] or arHIF196_[Sha] with a kcs18-1 mutant or its wild type background (Col-0). For each combination, 10 independent crosses have been done and CLR was determined from 100 seeds of each cross. Each data point represents the mean +/− SE (n = 10). CLR values for Col-0 and kcs18-1 are indicated by an arrow along the y axis. The QTL genotype x gene allele interaction term is very highly significant (p<0.1%).
