Figure 5

Effects of PsnSHN2 overexpression on the secondary wall deposition and breaking force in the stems of PsnSHN2 transgenic lines. (A,B) Phloroglucinol-HCl staining (red color) stem sections of PsnSHN2 transgenic lines (A) and wild-type (B). (C,D) Calcofluor white staining (blue color) stem sections of PsnSHN2 transgenic lines (C) and wild-type (D). (E,F) The contents of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin (E) and the breaking force in stems of PsnSHN2 transgenic lines (F). Error bars represent SD of three biological replicates. Asterisks indicate levels of significance (t test; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01).
