Fig. 7From: OsFPFL4 is Involved in the Root and Flower Development by Affecting Auxin Levels and ROS Accumulation in Rice (Oryza sativa)OsFPFL4 alters ROS accumulation in the root and inflorescence through affecting the expression of ROS-producer Rbohs. a Root system architecture of 7-day-old seedling in 1/2 MS medium. Scale bars, 1 cm. b NBT and DAB staining for O2− and H2O2, respectively, in the root tips of wild type and OsFPFL4 transgenic lines. Scale bars, 1 mm. c Quantification of H2O2 content in the roots of wild type and OsFPFL4 transgenic plants. Data are means ± SE (n = 10). d-kTranscript levels of OsRbohs in the roots of wild type and OsFPFL4 transgenic plants by qPCR analysis. Data are means ± SE (n = 3). Three replica experiments were performed. WT, wild type. OE-5 and OE-9, OsFPFL4 overexpression transgenic lines. RNAi-3 and RNAi-8, OsFPFL4-RNAi transgenic lines. Data are means ± SE (n = 10). The significant difference between OsFPFL4 transgenic lines and wild type was determined by Student’s t-test. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 or ***p < 0.001Back to article page
