Analysis of ion concentration in tissues from Chinese Spring and wheat aneuploid lines null for each functional TaHKT2;1 genes. Tissue samples of each genotype were measured for ion concentration in triplicate and each genotype was replicated four times for each salt treatment. (A) Mean Na⁺ concentrations (±SE) of various tissues of each genotype subjected to 200 mM NaCl treatment in the presence of 0.2 mM or 4 mM K⁺. (B) Mean K⁺ concentrations (±SE) of various tissues of each genotype subjected to 4 mM K⁺ treatment in no added Na⁺ in or the presence of 200 mM NaCl. Significant differences in tissue concentrations of Na⁺ (p < 0.01, CV = 16) and K⁺ (p < 0.05, CV =11) between the aneuploids and Chinese Spring are indicated by an asterisk (*).
