Comparisons of the reduction percentage of 08SG2/OsBAK1 mutation in indica and japonica backgrounds

	Grain length	Grain width	Plant height	Panicle length	Number of grains per panicle	Grain weight per panicle
08sg2 vs R498	−10.2 ± 0.2	−2.7 ± 0.7	−8 ± 1.1	−11.9 ± 2.8	−9.7 ± 2.1	−23.3 ± 3.1
KO vs Nipponbare	−6.3 ± 0.6**	−3.4 ± 1.0	−3.8 ± 0.5**	−7.1 ± 1.7*	−6.0 ± 1.0*	−18.1 ± 3.5*

Reduction percentage (%) was calculated using the WT (R498 and Nipponbare, respectively) as control. KO indicated the average value of the four knock out mutants. Data are given as means ± SD. Student’s t-test was used to generate the P values; * and ** indicate P < 0.05 and P < 0.01, respectively
