Point mutation rates in different Arabidopsis detector lines, after infection with various Agrobacterium strains, E. coli and heat-killed bacteria for 48 h. a. T → G transversion rates in line 693. b. T → G transversion rates in line 747. c. T → A transversion rates in line 699. d. C → T transition rates in line M4. Bars indicate the standard error of the mean of three biological repeats, each consisting of about 140–160 plants. Numbers on top of the bars show the respective mean values. Numbers at the bottom show the respective number of seedlings analysed. Vertical axis shows the mutation rates. a, b, c, d, eMeans not followed by the same letter are significantly different at 5 % level as determined by Duncan’s multiple range test. C, control; HK-A, heat-killed-Ach5; E, E. coli; HK-E, heat-killed E. coli
