Original text

A DHN gene knockout P. patens mutant showed poorer recovery from salt and osmotic stress compared to the wild-type (WT), indicating that DHNs are indispensable for the alleviation of cell dehydration (Saavedra et al., 2006).

Modified text

A DHN gene knockout P. patens mutant showed poorer stress resistance and recovery from salt and osmotic pressure compared to the wild-type (WT), indicating that DHNs are indispensable for the alleviation of cell dehydration (Saavedra et al., 2006; Ruibal et al., 2012).

Original text

DHN genes are highly expressed under conditions of various types of stress, such as drought, cold, or high salinity (Yoon et al., 2009).
