Figure 2. Growth vigour and amino acid content of genotypes with impaired and enhanced (S)NO signalling.

Figure 2

(a) Phenotype, (b) leaf area, (c) shoot fresh weight and (d) shoot dry weight of four-week-old plants grown on perlite:vermiculite (1:1) under 12h/12h light/dark and irrigated three times a week with a MS nutrient solution containing 25 mM nitrate (half KNO3 and half NH4NO3) (black bars) or with 2.5 mM nitrate and 5 mM glutamine. Scale bar, 1 cm. Data points represent means ± SD (n = 15 plants). (e-g) Contents of primary transported amino acids in WT and gsnor1 leaves. Asn, asparagine; Asp, aspartate; Gln, glutamine; Glu, glutamate. Data represent means ± SD of three independent analyses. Asterisks indicate statistically significant difference from WT (P < 0.05, Student’s t test).
