Transmission efficiencies detected in potential female gametophytic mutant lines

♀ × ♂Transmission efficiency (TE)Number of lines
Ds/+ × Wild type ≤0.25 56 
 0.25-0.5 63 
 0.5-0.75 43 
♀ × ♂Transmission efficiency (TE)Number of lines
Ds/+ × Wild type ≤0.25 56 
 0.25-0.5 63 
 0.5-0.75 43 

Plants were crossed manually and seeds of the resulting cross were collected and grown on kanamycin-containing MS plates to determine the efficiency in which the mutant allele (carrying the kanamycin resistance) was transmitted to the next generation by the females and male gametes. TE was calculated as the ratio of kanamycin-resistant plants to kanamycin-sensitive plants resulting from the crossing indicated.
