Parental generation
Parental biomass differed among the
genotypes
(mean±SE,
genotype A: 24.50 g ± 16.45; genotype B: 17.87 g ± 13.55; genotype C:
24.21 g ± 17.06) and was affected by the time period since the last
drought (Table 1). Control plants were the biggest and the plants that
received drought treatment in different time slots
were almost identical (Fig S1,
supplementary material). There was also a significant interaction
between 5-azaC and
time
since the last drought (Table 1). Application of 5-azaC decreased the
parental biomass in control but not in any of the drought stress
treatments (Table 1, Fig. S1).
