Fig. 1: Effects of the addition of ACC, melatonin and melatonin with AVG on the tolerance of ‘Crimson seedless’ grapevines to salt.
From: Melatonin enhances salt tolerance by promoting MYB108A-mediated ethylene biosynthesis in grapevines
a Phenotypes of grapevines grown in a greenhouse under natural conditions and under various treatments at 0, 21, and 24 DAT. b–d Vine height increment b, root activity c and leaf relative electrical conductivity d under various treatments at 21 DAT. Vine cuttings were treated with 100 mM NaCl in the presence or absence of 50 µM melatonin, 50 µM ACC and 2 µM AVG. DAT, days after treatment; ACC, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid; AVG, aminovinylglycine. Values represent the means ± SD of three replicates. Values indicated by the same lowercase and capital letters are not significant at P < 0.05 and P < 0.01, respectively, on the basis of Duncan’s multiple range test
