Fig. 6From: General control non-repressible 20 (GCN20) functions in root growth by modulating DNA damage repair in ArabidopsisThe gcn20–1 mutant is sensitive to UVC. a 3-week-old seedlings of the wild type, gcn20–1 and GCN20::GCN20 gcn20–1 grown in white light or white light with UVC. Bar = 1 cm (b) Quantitative analysis of fresh weights of wild-type, gcn20–1 and GCN20::GCN20 gcn20–1 plants treated with or without UVC shown in (a). c Relative fresh weights of wild-type, gcn20–1 and GCN20::GCN20 gcn20–1 plants treated with UVC compared with their untreated control. d Quantitative analysis of survival rates of 2-week-old wild-type, gcn20–1 and GCN20::GCN20 gcn20–1 plants treated with high dose (8 KJ/m2) of UVC for 3 h. Survival rates were analyzed after 7 days recovery. Data shown are means ± SEM. Asterisk indicates significant differences with respect to its control (Student’s t test): ***, P < 0.001Back to article page
