Monitoring of subchloroplast free [Ca²⁺] in Arabidopsis seedlings in response to environmental stimuli. Ca²⁺ measurements were conducted in Str-YA (blue traces), TM-YA (violet traces), and TL-YA (green traces) lines. A to C, In resting conditions. D to F, In response to 10 mm H₂O₂. G to I, In response to 0.3 m NaCl. J to L, In response to 20 µg mL⁻¹ OGs. In A, D, G, and J, data are presented as means ± se (black shading) of 15 traces obtained from 15 different plants derived from five independent growth replicates. Arrows indicate the time of stimulation (100 s). In the inset in G, a magnification of the region between 150 and 400 s is shown. B, C, E, F, H, I, K, and L show statistical analyses of Ca²⁺ levels recorded after 150 s (B, E, and K), after 600 s (C, F, I, and L), and at the peak (H). Bars labeled with different letters differ significantly (P < 0.05, Student’s t test).
