AGL21 Increases Auxin Accumulation in the Root through Local Biosynthesis.

(A) Effects of auxin transport inhibitors NPA on LR initiation in wild-type, AGL21-overexpressing and mutant plants. Five-day-old seedlings were transferred to medium supplemented with DMSO alone or the auxin transport inhibitor NPA (0.5 μM) dissolved in DMSO. After 7 d of growth, the LRs produced in the new growth were counted on 30 seedlings. Values are mean ± SD of three replica experiments and asterisks denote Student’s t-test significance compared with the wild-type plants: * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01.

(B, C) Relative expression levels of auxin transport genes (B) and auxin biosynthesis genes (C) in the roots of 9-day-old plants. The transcript levels of auxin transport or biosynthesis genes were normalized to the UBQ5 expression. The expression levels of each gene in the wild-type were set as 1.0. Values are mean ± SD of three replica experiments and asterisks denote Student’s t-test significance compared with the wild-type plants: * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01.
