Effect of auxin-like compounds on the terminal bud diameters of the oilseed rape cultivars ‘Casino’ and ‘Valesca’ at the end of the cold acclimation period.

Test Variant	‘Casino’	‘Valesca’
Control	4.35 ± 0.13 aA	4.76 ± 0.18 cB
TA-14	6.21 ± 0.24 bA	6.40 ± 0.30 dA
TA-12	6.23 ± 0.23 bA	6.33 ± 0.50 dA

Data are from four biological experiments with three replicates in each, 20 terminal buds per replicate. Within each cultivar, different lowercase letters indicate significant differences in mean diameters of terminal buds between the control and two different treatments. Different uppercase letters indicate significant differences in the mean diameters of the terminal buds between the two rapeseed cultivars in the same test variant. Terminal bud diameter (mm) ± SD with different letters are significantly different at p < 0.05 according to the Duncan test.
