Histochemical localization of AtPERK1 and AtPERK3 promoter::GUS expression in Arabidopsis. (A to J) AtPERK1 promoter::GUS expression: 7 day-old seedling showing (A) whole seedling, (B) first leaf, (C) hypocotyl-root junction and (D) root tip; (E) lateral root primordium; (F) rosette leaf; (G) stem segment from middle section of stem; (H) unopen flower bud; (I) open flower; (J) silique. (K to O) AtPERK3 promoter::GUS expression: (K) dark field image of a 21 day-old seedling (GUS staining is seen as pink); (L) rosette leaf; (M) stem segment from middle section of stem; (N) open flower; (O) mature anthers containing pollen grains. Representative images are shown, following the analyses of multiple samples from at least two independent transgenic lines for both the AtPERK1 and 3 promoters.
