Overexpression of CaWRKY41 reduces tolerance to Cd stress in transgenic Arabidopsis plants. (A–D) Seedling growth in WT, CaWRKY41-OE1, and CaWRKY41-OE4 lines on ½ MS medium containing (A) 0, (B) 25, (C) 50, and (D) 100 µM CdSO4. Representative photographs were taken 8 days after germination. (E) Fresh weight and (F) root length in WT, CaWRKY41-OE1, and CaWRKY41-OE4 plants exposed to Cd stress. (G) Cd concentration in the shoots and roots of WT, CaWRKY41-OE1, and CaWRKY41-OE4 plants after 3 and 5 days of treatment. Data represent the mean ±SE of three biological replicates. Different letters indicate significant differences compared with the control (Tukey’s test; lowercase letters indicate P<0.05 and uppercase letters indicate P<0.01).
