Fig. 5 From:Exogenous melatonin enhances salt secretion from salt glands by upregulating the expression of ion transporter and vesicle transport genes inLimonium bicolor Effects of NaCl and melatonin on salt secretion of salt glands ofL. bicolorleaves.a-d, the ability of salt secretion of leaves with leaf disc method,a, 0 + 0, 0 mM NaCl+ 0 μM MT;b, 0 + 5, 0 mM NaCl+ 5 μM MT;c, 300 + 0, 300 mM NaCl+ 0 μM MT;d, 300 + 5, 300 mM NaCl+ 5 μM MT;e, The total amount of Na+secreted by a single leaf;f, the total amount of Na+secreted by a salt gland. The values are the average of five biological repeats ± standard deviation. According to Duncan’s multi-range tests, bars that there were significant differences atP < 0.05 are labeled with different letters Back to article page
