Small Heat Shock Protein Responses Differ between Chaparral Shrubs from Contrasting Microclimates

Figure 3

Experimentally induced sHsp expression for 𝐶𝑒𝑎𝑛𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑢𝑠 and 𝑃𝑟𝑢𝑛𝑢𝑠 after a series of temperature treatments (32 to 42^∘C on 2^∘C intervals and 45^∘C). Panels A, B, and C are western blots of the three replicates using the general sHsp antibody. Panels D, E, and F are western blots of the three replicates using the chloroplast sHsp (chl. sHsp) antibody. Panels G, and H are the optical quantification of the three replicates. Error bars are SE for the three replicates.
