FIGURE 2.
Defects of OXLAC13 plants in late anther development. (A) In vitro germination rates of WT and OXLAC13 pollen. Scale bars, 100 μm. Values are means ± s. d. (n = 200 pollen grains). Red arrows indicate the succesfully germinated OXLAC13 pollen grains. Significant differences were identified at the 5% (∗) and 1% (∗∗) probability levels using Student’s t-test. (B) Spikelets 1 day after flowering (Scale bars, 4 mm), anthers after flowering (Scale bars, 2 mm), transverse sections of anthers after flowering (Scale bars, 100 μm) and the stigmas 2 h after flowering (Scale bars, 100 μm) of WT and OXLAC13 plants from the left panels to the right panels.
