"extend the structure" --
If you mean extra databases and/or tables, either should work.
If you mean extra/diff indexes, either(?) should work. [My previous
email was fishing for this answer.]
If you mean diff "engine" (MyISAM vs InnoDB), probably only
statement-based-repl will work. And there may be caveats with
foreign-key-constraints, etc.
If you mean extra columns, only statement-based-repl will work.
If you mean missing/changed columns, good luck.
