Microscopic analysis of rosette leaves of 20- and 35-d-old gte4 and wild-type plants

The mean area (±se) of the sixth rosette leaf, the mean area of the subepidermal cells (±se), and the mean number of subepidermal cells (±se) are shown at days 20 and 35 (70 cells randomly chosen in 10 specimens per genotype). Values followed by no letter or by the same letter are not significantly different.

Values of the wild type differ statistically from the gte4 mutant (P < 0.05).

b

Value of day 20 is statistically different with respect to the corresponding value of day 35 within the same genotype (P < 0.05).

c

Values of day 20 are statistically different with respect to the corresponding values of day 35 within the same genotype (P < 0.01).

d

Values of the wild type differ statistically from the gte4 mutant (P < 0.01).
