Thigmomorphogenic responses of the sdg8 mutant to mechanical stress. Wild type (WT) and sdg8 mutant Arabidopsis plants were grown under controlled conditions (A) or subject to 1 week of short, repetitive bursts of wind-agitated mechanical stimulation (B). (C) Morphological traits (petiole length, leaf blade length and leaf blade width) were measured for WT and sdg8, with and without mechanical treatment. N = 449 plants. Error bars are displayed (+/− twice the standard error).
