1We used 100 embryo axis explants per treatment, and each treatment was repeated thrice.
2SE: standard error.
3Means ± SEs of values of three independent experiments. Values with the same letter within columns are not significantly different according to the DMRT
4
5Transformation efficiency = (GUS explants/total explants infected) × 100.
6DMRT: Duncan’s multiple range test.
