Fig. 5From: The role of melatonin on caspase-3-like activity and expression of the genes involved in programmed cell death (PCD) induced by in vitro salt stress in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) rootsRelative expression of γVPE (A), BI-1(B), and UCP1-UCP2 (C) genes in alfalfa root meristem after ten days’ treatment with salt and melatonin. Data represents the mean of replicates ± SD and uncommon letters indicate significant difference based on Duncan's multiple range test (P < 0.05).
