  1. xCalculated from the mean peak G0/G1 of P. hispidinervum in relation to the external reference standard Pisum sativum L.
  2. yMeans followed by the same letter, belong to the same group, by the Tukey test at the level of 5% probability
  3. zMean genome size 1C, where 1 pg DNA = 978 Mpb (Dolezel et al. 2003)
  4. vMean of the coefficient of variation of peak G0/G1
