Autophagy occurs first in the root stele. (A) Confocal images of primary roots expressing GFP-ATG8e. Roots were counterstained with PI. Bars = 50 μm. (B) Numbers of puncta per root section in the root tips and mature root cells of wild type in (A). (C) The expression of the ATG8epro:GUS reporter was monitored in wild-type roots. Bars = 50 μm. All of the experiments have been repeated at least three times. Data shown are the mean ± SD (n = 3). P < 0.05; ∗∗P < 0.01; ∗∗∗P < 0.001 by Student’s t-test.
