SlUVR8 mediates UV-induced gene expression and anthocyanin accumulation. (A) Leaves detached from 30-d-old 35S::SlUVR8Ri, Ailsa Craig (WT), and 35S::SlUVR8OE seedlings grown under white light (photoperiod: 16 h light and 8 h dark) with or without 3-days UV-B radiation (12 h/day). (B) Quantitative measurement of anthocyanin and chlorophyll content in the fully expanded leaves in (A). Values were shown as “means ± SD”; Error bars represent SD of ten biological replicates. “*” and “**” means P < 0.05 and P < 0.001 respectively (Student’s t test). (C) The quantitative RT-PCR analysis of UVB-induced genes SlHY5 and SlCHS of the seedlings in (A). Values were shown as “means ± SD”; Each bar represents mean value from three biological replicates from each line (n = 3). “**” means P < 0.001 (Student’s t test).
