Comparative Analysis of Growth, Genome Size, Chromosome Numbers and Phylogeny of Arabidopsis thaliana and Three Cooccurring Species of the Brassicaceae from Uzbekistan

Table 2

Groups of similarly developing species in the 14°C (above diagonal) and 22°C (below diagonal) treatment as revealed from ANOVA and subsequent Tukey’s significant difference test. For example, in the 22°C treatment A. thaliana and O. pumila developed similarly in the phenological stages: B-days until bolting, F-days until flowering, and Fr-days until opening of the first fruit. Further abbreviation: G-days until germination. Nonoverlapping groups of species from the Tukey’s test are marked in bold italics letters. For example in the 14°C treatment, O. pumila and A. thaliana are not significantly different from one another in the days to opening of the first fruit, but they differ significantly from the Arabis species that are not significantly different from one another.
