Seed and starch weights and their relationships with seedling weight on 30 seeds basis during seedling growth. (a), dry weight of seed without embryo; (b, c), the relationships between the decreased seed weight and the root (a), shoot (b), and seedling (root + shoot) weight (c) in TQ (b) and TRS (c); (d), dry weight of starch in endosperm; (e, f), the relationships between the decreased starch weight and the root (a), shoot (b), and seedling (soot + shoot) weight (c) in TQ (e) and TRS (f). For (a and d), values are means ± SD from three replicates, and asterisks (*) highlight significant differences between TQ and TRS by Student’s t test (**P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001). For (b, c, e, and f), values are the means of three replicates, and R indicates the regression coefficient
