Effects of Al on the plasma membrane of epidermis cells. Five-day-old seedlings of WT and OX1 were exposed to 0 or 50 μM AlCl3 for 6h. Roots were transversely sectioned at 0.5mm from the apexes. (A) Section of WT without Al treatment. (B) Section of WT with Al treatment. (C, D) Sections of OX1 with Al treatment. Arrows in (C) and (D) show the multilamellar structures. CW, cell wall. PM, plasma membrane. ER, endoplasmic reticulum.
