Frequency distributions of the ratio of deep rooting (RDR) in three F 2 populations. RDR50 (a) and RDR70 (b) were calculated as the numbers of roots that penetrated the mesh at an angle of >50° and >70° from the soil surface, respectively, divided by the total number of roots that penetrated the whole mesh (see Figure S8). MoK-F2, Momiroman × Kinandang Patong; YuK-F2, Yumeaoba × Kinandang Patong; TaK-F2, Tachisugata × Kinandang Patong. Vertical and horizontal lines above the bars indicate the mean and SD of each parental line.
