From: Acetic-acid-induced jasmonate signaling in root enhances drought avoidance in rice

Figure 4

A mutant deficient in repressive regulation of JA signaling in root tip shows drought avoidance. (a) Wild-type and rss3 were grown for 16 days, then subjected to drought conditions for 4 days followed by cultivation for 10 days under well-watered conditions. (b) Flow rate of xylem sap in wild-type (gray) and rss3 (white) was examined before and after treatment with 30 mM acetic acid for 2 days. n = 3; error bars, standard deviation. Statistical significance was examined by Student’s t-test. (c) Xylem sap pH of wild-type (gray) and rss3 (white) was examined before and after treatment with 30 mM acetic acid for 2 days (n = 3).
