Growth response to excessive Zn, Cu and Cd stress in rice wild-type (WT), oszip1 mutant, RNAi lines (i) and OsZIP1-transgenic lines (OX). Two weeks-old young rice plants were grown in the nutrient solution supplemented with 0.4 (normal) and 1000 (high) μM Zn or 0.2 (normal) and 20 (high) μM Cu for 10 days or with 0 and 80 μM Cd for 4 d. a-d, m, n Phenotypes and shoot length of WT, oszip1, RNAi and OX plants exposed to Zn excess. e-h, o, p Phenotypes and shoot length of WT, oszip1, RNAi and OX plants exposed to Cu excess. i-l, q, r Phenotypes and shoot length of WT, oszip1, RNAi and OX plants exposed to Cd. Vertical bars represent standard deviation. Asterisks indicate that the mean values are significantly different between the oszip1 mutant/RNAi lines/OX lines and wild-type (p < 0.05)
