Figure 5: Influence of different levels of Pi or Phi on biomass accumulation in WT and transgenic seedlings.

From: The development of a phosphite-mediated fertilization and weed control system for rice

Figure 5

(a) Phi treatment at any given level resulted in death of WT seedling after 15 days of application. On the contrary, the biomass of WT seedling increased p ≤ 0.01 (**) significantly upon Pi supplementation. (b) Both Pi and Phi treatment at all the given levels significantly increased p ≤ 0.05 (*) or 0.01 (**) the biomass accumulation in ptxD transgenic plant (L-16). Each bar represents mean of 15 independent seedling ± SEM.
