Whereas, higher K+ content was recorded in leaves, compared with roots.
On the contrary, the addition of SS just slightly decreased Zn accumulation in plant leaves compared with other treatments.
Exogenous application of SA+SNP increased the Fe concentrations in peanut roots, stems and leaves compared with Fe deficiency treatment.
Researchers report that MDHAR6 mutant plants have long roots and bushy leaves, compared with other plants exposed to TNT.
Treatment with 18.5 and 28.5 °C decreased their length and width of leaves, compared with plants under 23.5 °C (Fig. 2a, b).
As shown in Figure 7d, after the protoplasts were treated with SWCNTs for 48 h, the death cells reached 80% or so, appeared yellow leaves, compared with the control group, there exists statistical difference between two groups, P < 0.05.
Foliar application of SA and/or SNP, the concentrations of Cu and Mn significantly decreased, however, the concentrations of Zn and Mg dramatically increased in the roots and leaves compared with control.
The NaCl, mannitol, and ABA treatments all significantly increased proline accumulation in the leaves compared with the control, with values reaching 3.39, 1.81, and 1.34 times the control value, respectively (Fig. 5).
The plants subjected to the WA35 and WA70 treatments developed smaller leaves compared with the plants subjected to the WA100 treatment (66% and 36% respectively), which contributed to the total leaf area reduction from 8.03 m2 (WA100) to 3.25 m2 (WA3.25
Genes up and down regulated in leaves compared with roots were found to be highly similar between the two Brassica array platforms.
As expected, GO categories identified as being significantly over-represented among genes whose transcript abundance was greater in leaves compared with roots were dominated by those associated with photosynthesis and chloroplasts (Table S1).
