FIGURE 7.

(A) Phenotype of 10-day-old seedlings grown on half-strength MS agar plates supplemented with 1% sucrose under long-day condition. (B) Primary root lengths of 7-day-old seedlings of wild-type and ANAC032 transgenic lines. Data represent values from three biological replicates. Each replicate included 20 roots. Bars with same letters are not statistically different from each other according to one way ANOVA-LSD test (P < 0.05). (C) Analysis of lignification pattern in WT and ANAC032 transgenic lines. Phloroglucinol-HCl staining of lignin in roots and hypocotyl regions of 7-day-old seedlings. Roots were analyzed under a light microscope (10 X magnification). (R-H, root-hypocotyl junction).
