Phenotyping of a select set of lines to investigate controls of RHD. A Significant SNPs from our analyses if ind lines across chromosomes 1, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 12. The lines we selected to phenotype further carried either the allele identity of reference (blue), alternate (yellow), or indeterminate (white). B Lines differ in density between the original (yellow, nodal roots, 8-week-old plants) and rephenotyped data sets (purple, seminal roots, 3-week-old plants). C Micrograph of the surface of a rice root with processed image highlighting hair (blue) and non-hair cells (pink). Scale bar represents 1 mm. D Lines do differ in the percent of cells that differentiate into hair forming cells. Significance was determined by a Tukey HSD test p < 0.05
