Fig 3. RSM1 overexpression causes hyposensitivity to salinity during seedling development.

Fig 3

(A) Overexpression of RSM1 enhances salt tolerance. Plants were grown on MS medium for 7 days and transferred to MS medium with or without 200 mM NaCl for 3–4 days, after which they were photographed. The images are representative of at least three experimental replicates. The scale bar indicates 1 cm. (B) Survival rates of RSM1-related materials as illustrated in (A). The survival rates were determined by scoring and calculating the ratio of the number of bleached seedlings to the total number of seedlings. The data are shown as the mean ± SD of three independent replicates of measurements (n = 3), where each genotype replicate included approximately 25 seedlings. ** indicates p<0.01 for the significance of the difference between each genotype and Col-0. (C) Relative ion leakage of RSM1-related seedlings as shown in (A). The data are shown as the mean ± SD from three replicates, each of which included approximately 50 seedlings (n = 3).
