GmPHO1 altered the salt tolerance of transgenic Arabidopsis plants. a The growth of GmPHO1;H9 transgenic plants under different salt stress. Wild-type (WT) of Arabidopsis (Col) was used as controls. The seedlings growing in medium for 6 weeks were captured. Bar = 0.5 cm. b-d Expression of salt tolerance-related genes in transgenic Arabidopsis. The expression of SOS2, SOS3, ADH, P5CS1 and FRY1 in transgenic Arabidopsis plants harboring GmPHO1;H8 (b), GmPHO1;H9 (c) and GmPHO1;H6 (d), respectively. WT and transgenic lines were grown in 1/2 MS medium for 1 week and then transferred to the salt medium with 175 mM NaCl for 24 h. Expressions of each gene in WT (gray column) under 0 mM NaCl were set as 1. The black stars (* or **) indicate the difference significance relative to the gene expression in WT under 0 mM NaCl, whereas the red ones indicate a significant difference relative to the gene expression in WT under 175 mM NaCl. The * means significance at the P < 0.05 level, and the ** represent the significance at the P < 0.01 level
