Relative levels of METC gene expression in rotenone-treated and control plants. Ten-day-old plants were treated with an aqueous solution containing 40 μM rotenone and 0.1% ethanol or treated with 0.1% ethanol in control. Two days later, gene expression in the two youngest expanded leaves was analyzed by real-time RT-PCR using EF1α as a reference gene. Data shown are average values ± standard deviations of results from six experimental repeats each containing 15 plants. Different letters in regular and italic fonts indicate significant differences by analysis of variance using Fisher’s least significant difference test and Tukey-Kramer’s test, respectively (n = 6; P < 0.01), for every of 13 data pairs shown in both bar graph panels and within the range indicated by bidirectional arrowhead grey line.
