Eight and 16 week old plants were classified as “yellow/bicolor” if yellow sec<strong>to</strong>rs<br />
appeared on all or some of the following plant parts: immature ovaries, leaves, stems,<br />
peduncles and/or staminate flowers. Plants <strong>with</strong> yellow sec<strong>to</strong>rs on vegetative parts always<br />
had yellow (or bicolor) ovaries.<br />
