The identification of salt tolerance in the GhWRKY5-silenced plants by virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS). (a) The leaves of TM-1 turned white after TRV2::GhCLA1 gene silencing, and empty vector (TRV2:00) leaves remained as green as the wild-type (WT) TM-1. (b) The leaves of “Miscott”, a salt-tolerant cultivar, withered, and new leaves grew slowly. (c) The leaves of “Su12”, a salt-sensitive cultivar, withered, fell off, and new leaves grew slowly. VIGS experiments were repeated at least three times with more than 10 plants for each construct per repeat.
