Effects of CAS gene overexpression on salt tolerance of Arabidopsis seedlings. For this experiment, 3-week-old WT and CAS-OE seedlings were irrigated with different concentrations of NaCl. After 14 days of salt stress treatment, seedling growth (A), chlorophyll content (B), H2O2 content (C), and MDA content (D) were compared between WT and CAS-OE plants. Data are the mean ± SD of five independent experiments. Different lowercase letters above the bars represent significant differences according to post hoc analysis (Tukey’s HSD, P < 0.05)
