Fig. 5: Phenotype of pLsi1-SSS::GFP transgenic rice.
From: Shoot-Silicon-Signal protein to regulate root silicon uptake in rice

WT and 5 independent pLsi1-SSS::GFP transgenic rice lines were cultivated hydroponically without Si for 4 weeks. Then, each plant was used for (a, b) real-time RT-PCR gene expression analysis of Lsi1 (a) Lsi2 (b), and SSS (d) in the root, and 24 h Si (1 mM) uptake experiment (c). The correlation between the SSS::GFP expression level in the root and the Si uptake is shown in (d). Data represent mean ± SD of 3 biological replicates.
