Figure 11. Effects of high salinity on root lengths of Col-0 and SsCBF1 transgenic lines.

Figure 11

(A) Representatives of Col-0 and two OE lines treated with 150 mM NaCl. Seeds of each genotype were germinated and grown vertically on MS medium for 4 d and then transferred to fresh MS medium containing 150 mM NaCl. Photographs were taken after 11d of growth. (B) Measurements of primary root lengths of plants shown in (A). All values are average and SD (n = 15). Asterisks denote Student's t test significance compared with Col-0 plants: **P<0.01. (C) High-salinity tolerance of Col-0 and two transgenic adult plants. 3-week-old plants (before treatment, upper panel) were irrigated with 300 mM NaCl solution every 3 d for 3 weeks. Bottom panel was photographed 3 weeks after the onset of irrigation.
