  1. *Recordings made from seed. Experiments were repeated at least three times and the values represent means of different samples. SD in each case was <3%. In all cases, n = 15. n is mentioned for each line in brackets.
  2. **WT plants did not survive under osmotic stress.
  3. †Recordings made from mature leaf. FW, fresh weight.
