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).
