Phenotype of A. thaliana plants overexpressing AdPCS1-3 in the presence of Cd. (A) Phenotype of two independent transgenic lines per construct and the control untransformed line (Col-0) grown on vertical plates for 10 days without (top) or with (bottom) the addition of 150 µM CdSO₄. (B) Fresh weight of the plants shown in A. Bars indicate the SD of n=3 biological replicates; asterisks indicate statistically significant differences from the untreated controls (P<0.05, t-test corrected with false discovery rate).
