  1. An unpaired t-test was used to determine if the difference of root length (in mm) at the 4th day of germination was significantly different between the rpr9 mutant and wildtype Q21861. The difference between the root lengths were statistically significant (two tailed P value = 0.0065). SD- Standard deviation, SEM - Standard error of mean
