Table 1 Measurements of lobes of fully expanded white flowers from TRV chs infected and TRV chs/la-1 infected plants

From: Silencing of PhLA, a CIN-TCP gene, causes defected petal conical epidermal cell formation and results in reflexed corolla lobes in petunia

  1. Each data point is the mean (± SD). The statistic significances were examined using student t test. The statistic significances of measurements between these two groups are indicated by number of stars. A diagram showing the measured regions is in Additional file 2: Fig.  S2
  2. n, number of lobes; **: p-value < 0.005; ***: p-value < 0.0005; W, lobe width; D, distance between sinuses; L, lobe length
