TABLE 1.

Phenotypic segregation of zygotic lethality in F2 of BL and ML populations.

	Number of scored heterozygous F2 plants	viable F3 grains	non-viable F3 grains	χ2(df = 1)	p value
BL population	39	609	210	0.18	0.67*
ML population	26	343	109	0.19	0.66*

* Statistically no significant derivation from the expected 3:1 (fertile:sterile) segregation ratio.
