The <i>hil1</i> Gene Protects Against Extreme Heat

Caption

The effects of heat shock on hil1 mutants, wildtype (wt) plants, and hil1/HIL1 complements (#3, #6, #9). Fourteen-day-old plants were exposed to heat shock. Note: the hil1 mutants faired poorly. The heat shock protocol was: treatment at 38°C (100.4°F) for 2 hours, 22°C (71.6°F) for 1 hour, and 45°C (113°F) for 165 or 180 minutes, followed by recovery at 22°C (71.6°F) for 7 days.
