Figure 2: Identification of a putative causal gene in the salt tolerance locus.

From: Identification of a novel salt tolerance gene in wild soybean by whole-genome sequencing

Figure 2

(a) W05 exhibits a higher salt tolerance than C08. Bottom photos: primary leaves. (b) A 978-Kb salt tolerance locus is first identified by LOD score (upper panel), and narrowed down to a 388-Kb region using SNP and simple sequence repeat markers (middle panel) and extreme groups (lower panel). SL, sensitive line; TL, tolerant line. (c) W05 accumulates less Na+ in the leaves than C08 72 h after NaCl treatment. N=4. Error bars=s.e.m., P<0.05. (d) Gene structure of GmCHX1 in W05 and Williams 82. Arrows indicate primer positions for insertion and real-time PCR studies. FW, fresh weight.
