Fig. 4: Agronomic traits in selected genome-edited mega variety lines as compared to the parental controls.
From: Broad-spectrum resistance to bacterial blight in rice using genome editing
Performance of edited IR64-IRS1132 lines in the T3 generation (left axis: plant height in green, panicle length in orange; right axis: percentage fertility in yellow and percentage of reproductive tillers in blue) relative to parental controls (IR64) (n = 15, no significant difference between IR64 and edited lines except fertility for line IR64-106, P < 0.01). Microfield experiments in screenhouses for agronomic trait assessments were conducted using randomized complete block design with three replicates. Trials were done in a single season. Data are presented in Supplementary Fig. 10.
