Fifty AA-genotype plants with high chlorophyll content and 50 aa- genotype plants with low chlorophyll content were selected by molecular markers and SPAD. Student’s t-test was used to compare the AA- and aa-genotype plants. aindicates significance at the 0.05 probability level; bindicates significance at the 0.01 probability level. Data are shown as mean ± SD (n = 50 for each sample)
