Wild type (Ler)	5.8±1.8	97.3±6.5	2.7±6.5

Genotype	Number of stomata^{^†}	Stomata in S position(%)^{^‡}	Stomata in N position (%)
Wild type (Ler)	5.8±1.8	97.3±6.5	2.7±6.5

At least 25 seedling hypocotyls were examined for each line

Number of stomata in two adjacent cell files, one located in the S and the other in the N position

Stomata in the S position overlie an anticlinal cortical cell wall; stomata in the N position overlie a periclinal cortical cell wall
