Figure 7. Comparison of growth characteristics, survival rate, and fertility rate between transgenic T2 seedlings derived from Line 28 (left tray) vs. wild-type seedlings (right tray) when kept at 10°C: (A) 5-d-old seedlings grown at 26°C (normal condition); (B) 1-wk-old seedlings; and (C) 4-wk-old seedlings. (D) Mean heights of transgenic and wild-type seedlings at different time periods, with error bars representing the standard deviation; and (E) survival and fertility rates of transgenic and wild-type plants after a 2-wk recovery period from 10°C in the greenhouse, during which surviving plants were grown to maturity.
