Escribed [59]. Briefly, the AtEHD constructs were cloned in pBINplus [60] and introduced by electroporation into Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain 
GV3101. Agrobacterium were grown in LB medium overnight, diluted into an induction medium (50 mM MES pH-5.6, 0.5 (w/v) glucose, 1.7 mM NaH2PO4, 20 mM NH4Cl, 1.2 mM MgSO4, 2 mM KCl, 17 mM FeSO4, 70 mM CaCl2 and 200 mM acetosyringone) and grown for an additional 6 h until OD600 reached 0.4?.5. The Agrobacterium culture was diluted to OD600 = 0.05?.2, and the suspensions were injected with a needleless syringe into the leaves of 7? week old tobacco plants. Leaves were observed for protein expression 24 to 72 h after injection.Figure 7. Effect of NaCl treatment on Arabidopsis seedling roots. 7?0 day old transgenic seedlings were floated on a 200 mM NaCl order Nobiletin solution supplemented with 5 mM Fm-4-64 for different time points (as indicated) and then washed.

Contrast and intensity for each image were manipulated uniformly using Adobe Photoshop and/or ImageJ software.promoter containing the translation enhancer signal and the Nos terminator, generating Pro35S: AtEHD1-GFP. Primers used to clone AtEHD1 are disclosed in [25]. For silencing in Arabidopsis, a segment of AtEHD1 (474 bp from residue 1 to residue 474) was cloned in the pKANNIBAL vector in both the sense and the anti-sense orientation, flanking the Pdk intron [56]. The construct was sub-cloned into the binary vector pART27 [57] and used for transforming Arabidopsis plants.BFA, NaCl, Fm-4-64 and Neutral Red treatments/stainingRoots of 1? week old Arabidopsis seedlings were floated on a solution of Brefeldin A (50 mM, Sigma) or 200 mN NaCl or water,EHD1 Function Analysiscontaining 5 uM Fm-4-64 for Sermorelin desired time points. Fm-4-64 staining was examined under a confocal laser scanning microscope. For viability, Roots were stained with 4 mM Neutral Red in 0.2 MS as described in [49]. For germination experiments, seeds 1516647 were germinated on 0.5 MS alone or supplemented with 200 mM NaCl. For germination statistics the criterion used was radical emergence.ROS was quantified by measuring pixel intensity of pictures taken with a Zeiss fluorescent microscope.Supporting InformationFigure S1 Co-localization
