Effect of NTRC Expression in Photosynthetic and Nonphotosynthetic Tissues on Root Growth.

Root length for each of the Arabidopsis lines, as indicated, was determined as follows. Seven-day-old seedlings grown in absence of any added sugar were transferred onto fresh MS plates supplemented with 30 mM, final concentration, Suc (black bars) or mannitol (gray bars) for 14 additional days under short-day conditions on vertical-oriented plates. Assays were repeated three times with at least 21 plants per treatment. Mean values ± se are shown. WT, the wild type.
