Comparisons of the copy number (CN) for 45S rRNA and other common repeat types among different subgroups of maize inbred lines. (A) 45S rRNA. Pairwise comparison showing that only the tropical/subtropical (ts) and stiff-stalk (ss) lines are significantly different (P = 0.025). (B) 5S rRNA. The ts are significantly different to the ss (0.0009) and nss lines (0.0011). (C,D) Two kinds of maize knob repeats. Knob 180 and Knob TR1 are significantly more abundant in the ts lines compared with any other subgroups (P < 0.0001). (nss) Non-ss lines. (*) P < 0.05, (***) P < 0.001, (****) P < 0.0001.
