(B) Number of ovules per gynoecium in control and BAP-treated plants. (C) Number of seed per fruit in control and BAP-treated plants. (D) Stamen size in control and the offspring of BAP-treated plants. (E) Number of ovules per gynoecium in control and the offspring of BAP-treated plants. (F) Number of seed per fruit in control and the offspring of BAP-treated plants. (A,D) ***P < 0.05 (t-student test). (B,E) Letters represent a statistical group, P < 0.001 (Kruskall-Wallis test). (C,F) ***P < 0.001 (Mann-whitney test). (A,D) n = 40 (control) and n = 80 (BAP and inherited); (B,C,E,F) n = 45.
