Environmental impact on Zn and phytic acid contents in cross-bred progenies. Three rice lines for each type of progenies were planted at three sites (Yuhang, Fuyang and Lin’an). a Zn content in the brown rice. b Phytic acid content in the brown rice. c Molar ratio of phytic acid to Zn in the brown rice. The results are presented as box-and-whisker plots. Plus symbol: mean value; line in the box: median value; bottom and top of the box: first quartile (Q1) and third quartile (Q3); upper whisker: top of box + 1.5 × interquartile range (IQR = Q3 - Q1); lower whisker: bottom of box - 1.5 × IQR. Different letters indicate statistically significant differences by LSD (P < 0.05)
