Analysis of pollen development and fertility in p5cs sesquimutants carrying the pLtp12:P5CS2 construct. a Percentages of aberrant pollen grains in wildtype (Col-0), p5cs sesquimutants (p5cs) and p5cs sesquimutants with a moderately (pLtp12:P5CS2m) or strongly (pLtp12:P5CS2s) expressed pLtp12:P5CS2 construct. nd: not detected; *** indicate significant differences from p5cs (p < 0.001, by student’s T-test). b Percentages of aberrant seeds in siliques after self-fertilization of the genotypes described in a. c Percentages of p5cs2–1 mutant allele-carrying seedlings (scored by sulfadiazine resistance) obtained by cross-pollination of wildtype pistils with pollen from the plants described in a. Bars in a, b and c represent the mean ± SE of, at least, three independent experiments. nd: not detected. Data on pLtp12:P5CS2s represents mixed data from two independent transgenic lines
