From: Comparative fiber property and transcriptome analyses reveal key genes potentially related to high fiber strength in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) line MD52ne

Fig. 3

Comparisons of fiber maturity ratios of mature fibers between MD52ne and MD90ne measured by image analysis microscopy. Circularity (θ = 4πA/P2) representing the degree of fiber cell wall thickness was calculated from average wall area (A) excluding lumen and perimeter (P) of cross-sections of 300 fibers. The maturity ratios between MD52ne (0.948 ± 0.010) and MD90ne (0.971 ± 0.033) calculated from the circularities showed no significant variation (p-value, 0.519). A scale bar represents 10 μm.
