Hypocotyl elongation of <i>TaNAC2L</i>-overexpressing transgenic Arabidopsis plants.

Abstract

<p>A. Levels of the <i>TaNAC2L</i> transcript in the wild type (WT) and 20 transgenic Arabidopsis lines according to real-time quantitative PCR analyses. B. Hypocotyl elongation of WT and transgenic plants (#13) after growth for 2.5 days in the dark at 22°C. Seedling treatments included: 1) maintained at 22°C; 2) treated at 38°C for 90 min; 3) treated at 45°C for 2 h; 4) first treated at 38°C for 90 min followed by 2 h at 22°C and then 2 h at 45°C. For all treatments, seedlings were returned to 22°C for 2.5 days and then photographed. The quantitative analysis of the hypocotyl length of the wild-type and transgenic plants is presented below the photographs.</p
