Figure 6. Effect of uniconazole on the plant height and culm bending of WT plants.
(a) Gross morphology of the uniconazole-treated plants. The plants at the left, center, and right were treated with 0, 3 × 10−6 and 1 × 10−5 M uniconazole, respectively. Bar = 50 cm. Dose-dependent inhibition of plant height (b) and induction of culm bending (c) in WT plants. Error bars represent the standard deviation calculated from 5 replicates. Single (*) and double asterisks (**) indicate significant difference between the mock and 3 × 10−6 and 1 × 10−5 M uniconazole at 5% (P<0.05) and 1% (P<0.01) levels of significance, respectively, as determined by t-test.
