Fig. 5: Leaf and root hydraulic conductance of the two tomato genotypes as affected by different CO growth environments.

From: ABA-mediated regulation of leaf and root hydraulic conductance in tomato grown at elevated CO2 is associated with altered gene expression of aquaporins

Fig. 5: Leaf and root hydraulic conductance of the two tomato genotypes as affected by different CO growth environments.

Leaf hydraulic conductance (Kl) (a) and root hydraulic conductance (Kr) (b) of wild-type tomato “Ailsa Craig” (WT) and its representative ABA-deficient mutant (flacca) grown under ambient (400 ppm, a[CO2]) and elevated (800 ppm, e[CO2]) CO2 environments. The effects of CO2 growth environment (CO2) and genotype (GE) as well as their interactions CO2 × GE are presented (two-way ANOVA). The different letters on the columns indicate significant difference between the treatments by Tukey’s test at P < 0.05. Error bars indicate standard error of the means (SE) (n = 4)
