Table 3 Summary of the H2O2 treatment effect on RWC and AWC. The percentage values indicate change in the measured parameters for plants of each line subjected to the 1 mM H2O2 treatment compared with untreated control. The p-values are listed for mutants that significantly differed from the WT under the treatment

From: Plasma membrane aquaporins of the PIP1 and PIP2 subfamilies facilitate hydrogen peroxide diffusion into plant roots
