<i>FAQ1/SVP</i> allelic effects on flowering initiation in different genetic backgrounds.

For each background is shown: the endogenous and transgenic SVP alleles analysed, the number of independent homozygous transgenic lines evaluated, and the average FAQ1/SVP allelic effects in long-day (LD) and short-day (SD) photoperiod. Allelic effects were estimated in two experiments as the mean difference between the leaf number of transgenic lines carrying SVP transgenes from Ler and Fuk. Only transgenic lines differing significantly from the corresponding untransformed control were used for allelic effect estimates. 1: The allelic effect of the original FAQ1 locus (detected in Ler and IL-FAQ1 lines) was estimated as the leaf number difference between Ler and IL-FAQ1 untransformed plants.
