Table 1.
The agronomic trait comparison between the mature wild-type (WT) and zl16 mutant plants.
| Agronomic traits | WT | zl16 |
|---|---|---|
| Flag leaf area (cm2) | 85.1 ± 2.5 | 74.1 ± 4.3∗∗ |
| Penultimate leaf area (cm2) | 90.8 ± 8.15 | 85.4 ± 7.7∗ |
| Seed setting rate (%) | 92.4 ± 3.2 | 85.1 ± 0.4∗∗ |
| 1,000-grain weight (g) | 32.9 ± 0.3 | 31.8 ± 0.2∗∗ |
Data are means ± SD (n = 10). Student’s t-test was used for statistical analysis (∗P < 0.05; ∗∗P < 0.01).
