a The 5-day-old EYFP-ATG8f/WT and EYFP-ATG8f/ubp1abc plants were subjected to HS treatment at 38 °C for 1 h, and then recovered at 22 °C for 6 h, 9 h, and 12 h. The maturation zone of indicated samples was observed using a confocal microscope. Scale bar = 10 μm. The magenta triangle represents circular structures. b Statistical analysis of the number of punctate signals in (a). Data represent mean ± SD; n = 5. Statistical analysis was performed using a two-tailed unpaired Student’s t test. c The 5-day-old EYFP-ATG8f/WT and EYFP-ATG8f/ubp1abc plants were subjected to HS treatment at 38 °C HS for 1 h, and then recovered in 1/2 MS liquid medium supplemented with 1 μM Conc A for 6 h, 9 h, and 12 h at 22 °C. The maturation zone of the roots from the indicated samples was observed using a confocal microscope. Scale bar = 10 μm. d Statistical analysis of the number of autophagosomes in (c). Data represent mean ± SD; n = 15. Statistical analysis was performed using a two-tailed unpaired Student’s t test. e The 5-day-old WT and ubp1abc plants were subjected to treatment at 22 °C (control) or 38 °C (HS) for 1 h and then heat-stressed plants recovered at 22 °C for 6 h, 9 h, and 12 h. Total proteins were extracted to detect using Anti-NBR1 (Agrisera; Cat# AS14 2805 A; 1:3000) and Anti-ATG8 (Agrisera; Cat# AS14 2769; 1:3000), with Anti-actin (Sangon Biotech; Cat# D110007; 1:5000) as the internal control. The value represents the relative protein content, defining the control group as 1. Data represent mean ± SEM; n = 3. f The 5-day-old WT and ubp1abc plants were subjected to treatment at 22 °C (control) or 38 °C (HS) for 1 h and then heat-stressed plants recovered at 22 °C for 6 h and 12 h. The same amount of insoluble protein was separated by SDS-PAGE and then stained with silver stain, which was used as a loading control. g Statistical analysis of the insoluble protein content in (f). Data represent the mean ± SD; n = 3. Statistical analyses were performed using a two-tailed paired Student’s t test. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
