Plants were grown to full maturity in greenhouse conditions. The weight of seeds harvested was measured for each plant. The main root length and lateral root number were measured in 16-day-old seedlings on the MS medium. The mean values ± SD of seven independent plants are shown.

a indicates value that are significantly different from the respective controls (P<0.05). ND; not determined.
