Emergence timing and fitness consequences of variation in seed oil composition in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Warm germination temperatures Under warm germination temperatures, the adaptive hypothesis prediction of higher intratype fitness for low-melting point lines relative to intertype competition was weakly supported by borderline significant contrasts ( P = 0.052, Table 3 ) with the mean fruit number of intratype competition (145.2 ± 11.3) higher than intertype competition (119.4 ± 10.2).

There was a nonsignificant trend of seeds with lower melting points emerging earlier than those with higher melting points, following the direction of predictions.
