Figure 3Freezing phenotype (A) of the egr2-3 mutant and egr2/EGR2:EGR2-Myc complementation lines under non-acclimated (NA) and acclimated (CA; 4 d at 4°C) conditions. Two-week-old seedlings grown on MS medium containing 0.8% agar were treated at −5°C for 0.5 h (NA) or −8°C for 0.5 h (CA).survival rate (B) of the egr2-3 mutant and egr2/EGR2:EGR2-Myc complementation lines under non-acclimated (NA) and acclimated (CA; 4 d at 4°C) conditions. Two-week-old seedlings grown on MS medium containing 0.8% agar were treated at −5°C for 0.5 h (NA) or −8°C for 0.5 h (CA). Data information each bar represents the mean ± SEM of three independent experiments, each of which has three technical repeats. Asterisks indicate significant differences compared to the wild type with the same treatment (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, two-tailed t-test).ion leakage (C) of the egr2-3 mutant and egr2/EGR2:EGR2-Myc complementation lines under non-acclimated (NA) and acclimated (CA; 4 d at 4°C) conditions.
