sto1 mutant plants are tolerant to KCl and NaCl and hypersensitive to LiCl stresses. A, Seeds were germinated in petri plates on standard MS medium and 7-d-old seedlings were subsequently transferred to MS medium supplemented with 160 mm NaCl, KCl, or 20 mm LiCl and allowed to grow for an additional 20 d. Photographs are representative of wild-type and sto1 mutant plants after 20 d from transferring onto saline medium. B, Plant fresh weights were measured after 20 d of growth on indicated medium. Values are means of 60 plants ± se.
