<i>At</i>BBE-like 28 loss-of-function affects biomass formation and salt stress tolerance.

<p>A: The <i>bbe28</i> mutant forms less biomass compared to Col-0, based on fresh weight (FW, black bars) and dry weight (DW, grey bars). B: The <i>bbe28</i> mutant is more sensitive to salt stress compared to Col-0. Black bars control medium, grey bars salt stress medium (100 mM NaCl). Average values ± SE are shown, with relative biomass (%) compared to Col-0 in A and percentage of green healthy shoots vs. total number seedlings in B. * indicates the statistically significant difference (Student’s t-test) when compared to Col-0 at p<0.05.
