Fig. 4From: Transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis reveals the role of CoA in the salt tolerance of Zygophyllum sppSEM analysis of the differences of the leaf epidermis between the ST and SS Zygophyllum species. Seedlings at the 10-leaf stage were treated with 150 mM NaCl for 24 h, after which their leaf epidermis was observed by SEM. Leaf epidermis of the ST species after treatment with 0 mM (a) and 150 mM NaCl (b). Leaf epidermis of the SS species after treatment with 0 mM (c) and 150 mM NaCl (d). Statistical analysis of the number of stomata (e) and the percentage of open stomata (f). Scale bars = 50 μm in (a-d). The values are the means ± SD from three replicates. Different letters indicate significant differences at P < 0.05 according to Duncan’s multiple range test. The absence of marked significance in e indicates that there were no significant differences between any of the groupsBack to article page
