Figure 3

Ethylene emission. A comparison of the ethylene emission (pL mg−1 FW−1 h−1) in 3 weeks old wild-type or acs2-1acs6-1 mutant Arabidopsis thaliana plants exposed for 24 or 72 h to 10, 25 or 100 μM CdSO4 or grown under control conditions in a rockwool culture system. Data are shown as mean ± s.e. of at least 3 biological replicates. The letters a-b represent groups with a significantly different ethylene production (Tukey's test: p < 0.05; except for 25 μM CdSO4 - 72 h, Wilcoxon rank sum test: p < 0.05). Statistics was performed separately for each Cd concentration and within each exposure time.
