Table 2 The ratio of effective source (RE) and the pollen dispersal distance at a given probability of 50–99% (DP50–99%) for different cases.

From: Increased pollen source area does not always enhance the risk of pollen dispersal and gene flow in Oryza sativa L

  1. Note: Effective source represents the pollen grains dispersed and deposited outside of the source area, and ineffective source is the opposite of effective source, and it represents the pollen grains deposited within the source area. RE represents the ratio of effective source. DP50–99% represents the pollen dispersal distance at a given probability of 50–99%, in other words, 50%-90% pollen grains in the effective source would be deposited within the range from the edge of pollen source to the distance of DP50–99%.
