A corrigendum on
The Cell Cycle Checkpoint Regulator ATR Is Required for Internal Aluminum Toxicity-Mediated Root Growth Inhibition in Arabidopsis
by Zhang, Y., Guo, J., Chen, M., Li, L., Wang, L., and Huang, C. F. (2018). Front. Plant Sci. 9:118. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2018.00118
There were mistakes in the icon colors (right upper corner) of Figures 1C,D,H,I, 3D,F,H, 4B. The correct version of these figures appears below. The authors apologize for the mistakes. This error does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.
FIGURE 1
Figure 1. Rescue of the Al-sensitive phenotype of als3 and star1 by atr mutation. (A,B) RT-PCR analysis of ATR, ALS3, or STAR1 in WT and different single or double mutants. UBQ10 was used as internal control. (C,D) Evaluation of Al tolerance in als3 (C) or star1 (D)-related mutants in hydroponic conditions. Seedlings were grown on a nutrient solution containing 0, 1, 2, or 3 μM Al at pH 5.0 for 7 d and then root length was measured and compared. Data are means ± SD (n = 15–20). (E–H) Evaluation of Al tolerance in soaked gel conditions. Seedlings were grown on a soaked gel medium containing 0, 0.5, 0.75, or 1 mM Al for 7 d. Data are means ± SD (n = 10–15). (E,F) Rescue of the Al-sensitive phenotype of als3 by atr. (G,H) Rescue of the Al-sensitive phenotype of star1 by atr. (I) Rescue of the Al-sensitive phenotype of als3star1 by atr in hydroponic conditions. Means with different letters are significantly different (P < 0.05, Tukey's test). Scale bar = 1 cm.
FIGURE 3
Figure 3. The Al hypersensitivity defects in almt1 and stop1 could not be rescued by the atr mutation. (A,B) RT-PCR analysis of ATR, ALMT1, or STOP1 in WT and different single or double mutants. UBQ10 was used as internal control. (C–F) Evaluation of Al tolerance in almt1 (C,D) or stop1 (E,F)-related mutants in hydroponic conditions. Seedlings were grown on a nutrient solution with different concentrations of Al at pH 5.0 for 7 d and then root length was measured and compared. Data are means ± SD (n = 15–20). (G,H) Evaluation of Al tolerance in almt1-related mutants in soaked gel conditions. Seedlings were grown on a soaked gel medium containing 0, 0.5, 0.75, or 1 mM Al for 7 d. Data are means ± SD (n = 10–15). Means with different letters are significantly different (P < 0.05, Tukey's test). Scale bar = 1 cm.
FIGURE 4
Figure 4. Rescue of the Al-sensitive phenotype of als1 by atr mutation. (A,B) Seedlings of WT, atr, als1, and als1atr were grown on a soaked gel medium containing 0, 0.5, 0.75, or 1 mM Al for 7 d. Data are means ± SD (n = 10–15). Means with different letters are significantly different (P < 0.05, Tukey's test). Scale bar = 1 cm. (C) Rescue of QC differentiation of als1 by atr mutation. Seedlings of WT, atr, als1, and als1atr harboring QC46 (QC-specific marker) were grown on a soaked gel medium containing 0 or 1.5 mM Al for 7 d and the roots were stained with GUS staining solution and observed under a microscope. Scale bar = 50 μm.
