Table 1. Effects of PpCBF3 expression on flowering time and rosette leaf number.
Plants | Time to flowering (days)* | Rosette leaves per plant (n) # |
---|---|---|
WT | 29 | 13.0±1.93 (14)b |
Line 3 | 43 | 21.8±1.98 (13)a |
Line 6 | 34 | 20.7±2.26 (10)a |
Line 9 | 36 | 21.5±3.14 (11)a |
Line 11 | 37 | 21.6±1.67 (10)a |
Line 12 | 43 | 21.5±1.97 (10)a |
a, bMeans followed by the same letter are not significantly different at α = 0.05 based on single degree of freedom contrasts from within an analysis of variance.
*Period of time between plants germination and appearance of first flower buds in a population of “n” plants.
#Means representing the rosette leaves number of WT and 5 transgenic lines divided by the number “n”.
