Genetic analysis of the dw dwarf phenotype in F₂ segregated populations from three crosses

Cross	Phenotype of F1 plants	Wild type (plants)	Dwarfa (plants)	Total (plants)	${\chi }_{3:1}^2$	P b
dw × Zp661	Wild type	97	31	128	0.04	0.84
dw × JD12	Wild type	231	92	323	2.09	0.15
dw × Zh13	Wild type	146	53	199	0.28	0.59

^aDwarf plants were identified by visual inspection based on a phenotype of reduced plant height, shortened internodes, and dark green leaves

^bP > 0.05 is considered significant
