% OMES: Percentage of ovules carrying meiotic embryo sacs; % OAES: percentage of ovules carrying aposporous embryo sacs (as indicated in the references quoted in the last column). The percentages of ovules carrying meiotic or aposporous embryo sacs do not sum up to 100% because mixed ovules with both embryo sac types occurred frequently.
aRelative representation of the PnTgs1 transcript in floral tissues as estimated by real-time PCR. Genotype Q4012 (full apomictic, 0.0% OMES, relative expression: 1.000) was used as a control in REST-RG (Corbett Life Sciences) expression analysis.
bStandard error as calculated by REST-RG software.
cResults indicating up-regulation (UP) or down-regulation (DOWN) at a highly significant level as informed by REST-RG.
dStudies reporting % OMES and % OAES corresponding to the different genotypes analyzed here.
