From: Reproductive biology and breeding system of Saraca asoca (Roxb.) De Wilde: a vulnerable medicinal plant

Types of pollination	No. of flowers studied	Fruit set %
Natural pollination	2320	2.05^a
Open pollination	286	2.28^a
Self pollination (autogamy)	227	0.00
Geitonogamy	7286	0.46^b
Cross pollination	318	2.43^a
F value		7.97*
SE (m)		0.44
Standard deviation (SD)		1.24
CD (p = 0.05)		1.32
CV (%)		16.11

SE (m) standard error of mean
* Significant at P ≤ 0.05; the values are the mean for different variables ±SE
Same letter in the superscript (^a) does not differ statistically
