Transcript profiles of PIP2E, GH3.1, and GH3.3 in primed and non-primed plants. mRNA levels of PIP2E, GH3.1, and GH3.3 (relative to constitutive gene RpII) determined by qPCR in roots of primed plants (PR, light grey and black bars) or non-primed plants (CR, white and dark grey bars) 10 days after priming and 4 h after application of 0 (-) or 80 mM NaCl (+). Bars are means ± SE of three independently treated replicate plant batches each consisting of 12 plants. Significant differences between primed and non-primed plants for each condition (+/- salt) are indicated with * for P <0.05 and (*) for P = 0.06.
