Table 2.

Days to flowering (DTF) for plants subject to hydroponic B screening then transplanted to pots (screened transplants), grown from immature precociously germinated seed (PGS) or mature seed, compared to plants grown in pots in an accelerated single seed descent (aSSD) system

‘Sig.’ column shows P value of one-way ANOVA testing seed maturity effect on DTF

a‘aSSD’ flowering data taken from plants grown in pots and soil under aSSD conditions that minimise DTF as reported by Ribalta et al. [11], with no screening taking place
