Overexpression of TaPI4KIIγ in wild-type Arabidopsis improved stress tolerance. (A) TaPI4KIIγ affected the root growth of Arabidopsis. The left image shows growth of the WT compared with the 35S::TaPI4KIIγ lines. The histograms show root length and root surface area. (B) Transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing TaPI4KIIγ under water deficit treatment. The seedlings were not watered for 20 d. (C) Performance of transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing TaPI4KIIγ under salt stress. The plants were treated with 200mM NaCl for 20 d. Rosette diameters of transgenic plants and the WT under salt stress are shown on the right. Each bar is the mean of 25 seedlings. (D) Arabidopsis grown on MS medium containing 1 μM ABA. Germination rates are shown in (E). (F) MDA contents in seedlings treated with 200mM NaCl and 10% PEG compared with normal growth conditions. (G) Proline contents in seedlings treated with 200mM NaCl and 10% PEG compared with seedlings grown under normal conditions. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 represent three 35S::TaPI4KIIγ lines, respectively. (This figure is available in colour at JXB online.)
