Figure 6. Analysis of seed germination and root elongation of GhMPK17 overexpression transgenic Arabidopsis under NaCl stress.

Figure 6

(A to C) Seed germination rate of GhMPK17 overexpression lines and wild type on MS medium containing different concentrations of NaCl. (A) Seeds germinated on MS medium (control). (B) Seeds germinated on MS medium with 50 mM NaCl. (C) Seeds germinated on MS medium with 100 mM NaCl. Each curve represents an average of three replicates. (D to G): Phenotype of wild type and GhMPK17 overexpression seedlings under NaCl treatment. Seeds were germinated on MS medium under normal condition for 7 days and then the seedlings were transferred onto MS medium supplemented with 0 (D), 100 (E), 150 (F) and 200 (G) mM NaCl for 7 days. Each experiment was repeated at least three times with identical results. Bars = 1 cm. (H to I) Statistical analysis of root elongation of wild type and GhMPK17 overexpression seedlings grown on MS medium as control (H) or MS medium supplemented 100 mM NaCl (I). Data were shown from three independent experiments, and bars indicate SDs. **, P<0.01. WT, wild type; L11, L24 and L46, GhMPK17 transgenic line 11, 24 and 46.
