Growth of the transgenic tobacco cells expressing BnALMT1, BnALMT2, and the vector (pBI121) following an 18 h treatment in control solution or 100 μm AlCl3. After Al treatment the cells were washed twice with Ca-Suc medium (pH 5.8) and transferred to a modified MS medium for an additional 7 d. Results show the cell growth relative to the Al-free controls of each construct. Bars represent means ± se of three replicates and the experiment was repeated three times.
