Table 1 Phenotypic performance of the aneuploid plants

Genotype	No. of plants	Chromosome constitution	Plant height (cm)	Spike length (cm)	No. of spikelets	Seed set (%)
M4B	10	20″ + 4B’	88.05 ± 2.89	17.49 ± 0.56	23.90 ± 0.48	54.49 ± 2.71*
Euploid	28	21″	86.07 ± 2.97	17.77 ± 0.39	24.23 ± 0.31	63.83 ± 2.85
Tri4B	5	20″ + 4B”’	79.76 ± 1.97	15.12 ± 0.89**	22.40 ± 0.51*	61.14 ± 2.45
SegT2A	5	20″ + Seg2A”	92.42 ± 3.38	21.14 ± 0.96*	25.40 ± 0.40	71.17 ± 3.61
N7B + SegT2A	11	19″ + Seg2A”	72.91 ± 3.06**	17.14 ± 0.34**	21.27 ± 0.36**	28.63 ± 3.06**

*, **: means differ from one another at P ≤ 0.05 and ≤ 0.01, respectively (statistical significance was determined using Student’s t test). Comparisons were made between euploid plants and the aneuploids M4B, Tri4B and SegT2A and between N7B + SegT2A and SegT2A
