Measurements of plant height were made on at least 15 plants. Each value represents the mean ± sd.

a

The distances between the first 15 pedicels on the main bolt were measured from a single plant. 

b

The second pair of leaves was measured and averaged for 15 plants. 

c

The first 15 siliques on a single plant were measured, and the seeds were removed and counted.
