Data for plant height (PH), nodes of the main stem (NM), branches (BR), total pods per plant (TP), total seeds per plant (TS), seed yield per plant (SY, measured in g), seed kernel weight (SW, measured in g) and cracked pod rate (CR measured in %) are shown as average of plants ± SD. Asterisks indicate a significant difference between the control and transgenic plants in the same year (**P < 0.01)
