|---|---|---|---|---|
| CDC Sage | CDC Golden | CDC Sage | CDC Golden | |
| β-sheet | 41.3* | 46.3 | 46.0 | 51.7 |
| α-helix | 48.6 | 35.3 | 43.6 | 36.2 |
| others | 10.1 | 18.4 | 10.4 | 12.0 |
Data were estimated from the average spectra of 15 individual pollen grains per treatment combination.
*Percentage with respect to 100% of total protein structures; others represent loops, turns, and pectin.
