Mean circadian periods of leaf movement in Arabidopsis mutant and wild-type seedlings, calculated using REML analysis.
* P from Wald test; indicates the statistical significance of FLC's effect alone, by comparison of FLC to flc irrespective of FRI/fri.
** P from the standard error of the difference; indicates the statistical significance of 35S:FLC effect, compared to Col wild-type.
s.e.m., standard error of the mean.
n, number of contributing leaf traces.
