  1. Note: For various hormones and the environmental stress factors, the leaves of seedlings were sampled at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 24 h after treatment. **and *indicate significant difference at P < 0.01 and P < 0.05, respectively. “—” represents undetected difference; “D” represents significant reduction for given MAPKKK gene expression after treatment. The Student’s t-test was performed between treated samples and mock controls.
