Salinity mediated induction of oxidative stress. (AC, left panels) Qualitative analysis of H2O2 accumulation levels in the roots of 7-days old wild-type, OE-1, sog1-6and sog1-1 mutant lines in the absence and presence of 50 and 150 mM NaCl, respectively. (AC, right panels) Localization of superoxide radicals by ROS imaging using CM-H2DCFDA in root tips of all the genotypes in absence and presence of NaCl. Dark regions and green patches indicated by the arrow heads showing H2O2 accumulation and ROS generation, respectively. Representative images from at least three independent experiments with similar results are shown. (D,E) Quantitative estimation of H2O2 content and total ROS in the roots of 7-days old wild-type, OE-1, sog1-6 and sog1-1 mutant line seedlings, either untreated or treated with increasing concentrations of NaCl. Quantitative data has been represented as the mean value of three independent biological replicates. Error bars represent standard deviation. Asterisks represent statistically significant differences (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01) relative to controls.
