Arsenic accumulation in roots and shoots of CsGGCT2;1 OE
and WT plants
Arsenic concentration was determined in the shoot and root tissue of
both CsGGCT2;1 OE and WT seedlings. CsGGCT2;1 OE lines
accumulated ~ 40-60% lesser arsenic in the roots
(Figure 5a) and ~ 60% less in the shoots than the WT
plants (Figure 5b). The translocation factor (TF) from root to shoot was
also 23 to 36% lower for CsGGCT2;1 OE lines relative to WT
seedlings (Figure 5c).
