Comparison of Chlorophyll Content and Photosynthetic Activity Under Nitrogen Starvation

Caption

Left: In nitrogen-depleted (-N, dark gray) conditions, plants overexpressing PAH1 and PAH2 (PAH1OE and PAH2OE) showed greater chlorophyll content than wild-type (WT) plants. Right: PAH1OE and PAH2OE showed greater photosynthetic activity than WT plants under nitrogen-depleted (-N, dark gray) conditions. Lower: Plants growth under normal growth (+N) and nitrogen depleted (-N) coniditions. Scale bars: 1 cm.
