AHP6 and MYC2 are involved in JA-mediated xylem development. (a) Root vasculature of ahp6-1 plants grown in 10 μM MeJA-untreated (top) or -treated (bottom) conditions for 7 days. The red dotted line indicates a xylem axis. (b) Quantification of extra xylem formation in the roots of Col-0, ahp6-1, and myc2-3 mutants grown in 10 μM MeJA or not treated for 7 days (n > 22). (c and d) The number of vascular tissues cells (c) and xylem cells (d) in JA-treated and -untreated ahp6-1 mutant plants. (e) Analysis of AHP6 expression in myc2-3 mutants by qRT-PCR. Total RNA was extracted from Col-0 and myc2-3 roots grown in 10 μM MeJA or not treated for 7 days. GAPDH was used as a reference gene. Error bars represent S.D. and asterisks indicate statistically significant differences between the corresponding samples and their control (p < 0.01, t-test). (f) GUS staining of AHP6::GUS/myc2-3 plants grown in 10 μM MeJA or not treated for 7 days using 1 mM ferrocyanide/ferricyanide-containing GUS staining solution. Scale bar = 20 μm in (a) and 100 μm (d).
