Fig. 6 From:通用电气nome-wide identification and characterization of cucumberbHLHfamily genes and the functional characterization ofCsbHLH041in NaCl and ABA tolerance inArabidopsisand cucumber Overexpression ofCsbHLH041increased salt and ABA tolerance in cucumber seedlings. Phenotypes of35Sempty vector and35S:CsbHLH041cucumber seedlings treated with 100 mM NaCl (a) and 100 μM ABA (b) at different time periods during hydroponic growth. (c) Survival of35Sempty vector and35S:CsbHLH041cucumber seedlings after 12 h of salt and ABA treatments. Comparison of the antioxidant enzyme activity between35Sempty vector and35S:CsbHLH041cucumber seedlings under salt and ABA treatment: (d) peroxidase (POD) activity, (e) superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, (f) catalase (CAT) activity. The bars showed the SE. * and ** indicate significant differences atP < 0.05 andP < 0.01, respectively Back to article page
