Leaf morphological traits for parental grapevines ‘Horizon’ and Illinois 547-1
| Trait | ‘Horizon’ | Illinois 547-1 | p-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Domatia size (mm) | 0.95 | 1.27 | 0.11 |
| Domatia (rating) | 7.5 | 8.5 | <0.0001 |
| Bristles on leaf veins (density) | 1.8 | 7.9 | <0.0001 |
| Bristles on leaf blade (density) | 0.2 | 4.0 | <0.0001 |
| Hairs on leaf veins (density) | 4.0 | 3.1 | 0.013 |
| Hairs on leaf blade (density) | 3.6 | 0.0 | <0.0001 |
Values correspond to the means of ten independent leaves. The density of bristles and hairs was measured on a discrete scale from 0 (absent) to 9 (very dense), and four domatia per leaf were measured and rated with the bristle scale. Significance of differences were obtained by a t-test
