  1. Harvested R1 seeds from protoplast-regenerated plants were germinated on MS medium (> 60 seeds). Germination rate was calculated as the percentage of radicle emergence from the seed coat at 2 days after transfer to the long-day condition. Cotyledon area of 7-day-old seedlings was measured with ImageJ software. Flowering time was assessed as the number of rosette leaves, when the bolt reached 1 cm. Data represent the mean ± SEM of biological triplicates
