Phenotypic analysis, chromosome number and flow cytometric analysis of the colchicine-induced B. rapa plants. a, b flower of diploid B. rapa and the enlarged flower of B. rapa plant. Bar = 1 cm. c, d Open flower of the diploid and autotetraploid B. rapa. e, f Exactly 20 chromosomes in diploid B. rapa and 40 chromosomes counted in autotetraploid B. rapa. Bar = 10 μm. g, h Peak distribution of nuclear DNA content in autotetraploid in comparison with diploid B. rapa. i, j differences in petal sizes between diploid and autotetraploid B. rapa. k Measurements of floral tissues between diploid and autotetraploid. l Depiction of floral transition between the diploid and autotetraploid. Asterisks indicate the following criteria of significances: *p ≤ 0.05
