From: An enhanced photosynthesis and carbohydrate metabolic capability contributes to heterosis of the cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) hybrid ‘Huaza Mian H318’, as revealed by genome-wide gene expression analysis

Fig. 1

Four years of investigation of yield-related traits in H318 and its parental lines. a The number of bolls was stably higher in the hybrid over 4 years. b Boll-node number increased in the first 2 years. c The abscission rate decreased in 3 out of the 4 years, corresponding to the number of bolls. d The average number of fruit branches showed no difference between hybrid and its parents. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences (* P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001) by Student’s t test. The x axis represents year, and the y axis represents numbers or ratios
