Fig. 7From: Morphogenesis and cell wall composition of trichomes and their function in response to salt in halophyte Salsola ferganicaEffect of salt stress on trichome development in S. ferganica. a–c, e–g, i–k, m–o Cytological changes in the trichome cells during true leaf development under NaCl treatment. d, h, l, p Trichome length measurements corresponding to a–c, e–g, i–k, and m–o, respectively. a–d Germination for 36 h; e–h 40 h; i–l 54 h; m–p 60 h. a, e, i, m H2O; b, f, j, n 100 mmol·L− 1 NaCl; c, g, k, o 300 mmol·L− 1 NaCl. Scale bar: a–c, e–g, i–k, m–o, 25 μm. Different lowercase letters above columns indicate significant differences (P < 0.05 or 0.01) among different NaCl concentrations at the same developmental time. Values are means ± SD of at least 10 replicates. CC: cotyledon cell; TC: trichome cell; M1: mesophyllBack to article page
