From: Involvement of trehalose in hydrogen sulfide donor sodium hydrosulfide-induced the acquisition of heat tolerance in maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings

Figure 7

Effects of exogenous trehalose pretreatment on electrolyte leakage (A) and the content of MDA (B) of maize seedlings under heat stress at 47°C. were irrigated with 100 ml of 0 (control), 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 mM trehalose for 6 h, respectively, and then were subjected to heat stress at 47°C for 15 h, electrolyte leakage in roots and MDA content in coleoptiles of maize seedlings were calculated. Error bars represent standard error and each data in figure represents the mean ± SE of three experiments, and asterisk and double asterisks indicate significant difference (P < 0.05) and very significant difference (P < 0.01) from the control without trehalose treatment, respectively.
