Arabidopsis gid1 mutant seed germination



Fig.4. The effect of the three GID1 receptors on the seed germination of Arabidopsis thaliana studied with mutants for AtGID1a, AtGID1b and AtGID1c.

Time-course analysis of endosperm rupture of after-ripened seeds of Arabidopsis single (gid1a, gid1b, gid1c) and double (gid1agid1b, gid1bgid1c, gid1agid1c) mutants imbibed at 24ºC in continuous light without preceding stratification. The results presented were obtained with the mutant set by Iuchi et al. (2007), the same results were obtained with an independent mutant set by Willige et al. (2007).

A, Medium without hormones added (control, CON).
B, 10µM GA4+7 (GA)
C, 1µM ABA.
D, Tetrazolium-assay to confirm viability of gid1agid1c; (-) and (+): negative (seed killed by preceding heat treatment, 1 h at 100 ºC) and positive wild-type seed controls. Mean values ± SE of 3x 50 seeds are presented.
