Table II. Cell area and shape quantification of pin1, pin3, pin4, and pin7 mutant combinations and ric4-2.
Values are means ± sd. Asterisks indicate significant statistical differences between the null mutant line and the wild type by Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test (P < 0.05). n ≥ 44; n = 16 for ric4-2.
