Drought, oxidative, excess iron stress tolerance assay and ROS accumulation analysis of Arabidopsis ferritin-lacking mutants, TaFER-5B-overexpressing lines and complemented lines. a Phenotypes of 10-day-old Arabidopsis ferritin-lacking mutants, TaFER-5B-overexpressing lines and complemented lines before and after mannitol, Fe-EDTA and H2O2 treatment. b Total root length statistics for the roots of the 10-day-old seedlings in (a). c H2O2 content in the 10-day-old seedlings in (a). d The activity of the antioxidant enzyme CAT in the seedlings in (a). e The activity of the antioxidant enzyme GR in the seedlings in (a). The data represent mean values ± SD of three independent experiments. (* indicates significance at P < 0.05; ** indicates significance at P < 0.01)
