BMC Plant Biology

Table 1 Summary of three node culture experiment outcomes

Experiment	UGA	UT-Austin1	UT-Austin2
Genotypes sampled	224	167	131
Genotypes produced shoots	170	150	67
Genotypes with rooted plants	149	128	64
Propagation efficiency ^a	66%	77%	49%

^a Propagation efficiency was calculated by dividing the number of genotypes successfully propagated by the total number of genotypes sampled
