ROS generated through the malate shuttle affects plant growth under different photoperiod conditions. a Schematics of different growth conditions. L-85, long-day condition (16-hr light/8-hr dark) with a light intensity of 85 µmol m⁻² s⁻¹; C-85 or C-55, continuous illumination conditions (24-hr light) with a light intensity of 85 µmol m⁻² s⁻¹ or 55 µmol m⁻² s⁻¹. b Phenotypes and DAB staining of mod1 grown under different illumination conditions in a at 22 DAG. Scale bars, 1 cm. c Phenotypes and DAB staining of Col-0, som410, som787, and som328 grown under different illumination conditions in a at 22 DAG. Scale bars, 1 cm. d Aboveground fresh weight of Col-0, som410, som787, and som328 under different illumination conditions in a at 22 DAG. Values are means ± SD (n = 10). The asterisks represent significant difference between mutant and Col-0 grown under the same condition determined by Student’s t test. ns, no significant difference; *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01
