Typical morphological characteristics of Oat-like rice. a Panicle morphology of NIP (left) and Oat-like rice (right). le, lemma; pa, palea. b Comparison of grain shape between NIP (left) and Oat-like rice (right). c Morphological comparison of brown rice between NIP (up) and Oat-like rice (down). Arrowheads indicate conjugated twin brown rice; arrows indicate two embryos of a conjugated twin brown rice grain. d Comparison of lemma length, palea length, grain width, grain thickness, brown rice length, brown rice width and brown rice thickness between NIP and Oat-like rice. e-h Comparison of grain length-to-width ratio (e), brown rice length-to-width ratio (f), percentage of conjugated twin brown rice (g) and 1000-brown rice weight (h), between NIP and Oat-like rice. Bars: (a) 10 cm; (b and c) 1 cm. Data presented are mean values± SDs [n = 140 in d-f; n = 3 replicates (1000-brown rice for each replicate) in g and h.]. Student’s t-test: ***p < 0.001
