alg10-1 mutant phenotypes.

(a) Wild-type (wt) and alg10-1 mutant plants grown on soil under long-day conditions (16-h light/8-h dark).

(b) Leaf sizes of 6-week-old wild-type and alg10-1 mutant plants.

(c) alg10-1 is salt sensitive. Seedlings were grown on MS medium for 6 days, transferred to new MS plates containing 120 mm NaCl and grown for 14 additional days. Col-0 wild-type and stt3a-2 mutants were included for comparison.

(d) Root tip of wild-type, alg10-1 and stt3a-2 seedlings grown for 14 days on MS medium supplemented with 160 mm NaCl.
