Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Antisense M6PR celery lines did not accumulate significant mannitol with or without salt stress.
- Intervention effect Without NaCl, antisense M6PR celery lines were mostly phenotypically similar to wild type.
- Intervention effect Under NaCl, mature antisense celery lines were significantly less salt tolerant than wild type.
- Intervention effect Under NaCl, antisense celery plants showed reduced growth.
- Intervention effect Under NaCl, antisense celery plants showed reduced photosynthetic rates.
- Intervention effect Some antisense celery lines were killed at 200 mM NaCl, which wild type normally withstands.
- Intervention effect Salt treatment enhanced mannitol biosynthesis in wild-type celery.
