Figure 6.

Box plots demonstrate a relationship between MTOM and transgression. Crosses that produce transgressive F2 are between parental species with less difference in starting KT (a proxy for MTOM) than crosses that do not produce transgressive F2 (t-test, p < 0.001). The bar is the median value, the box is the 25th-75th percentile, whiskers are the 10th and 90th percentiles and the dots are outliers beyond the 5th and 95th percentiles.
