ROS burst assay
For ROS burst assays, barley seeds were surface sterilized with 6% sodium hypochlorite for 1 h and then washed extensively (5 × 30 mL sterile water).
Germination
Seeds were germinated on wet filter paper at room temperature in the dark under sterile conditions for three days before transfer to sterile jars containing solid 1/10 plant nutrition medium (PNM), pH 5.7 and 0.4% Gelrite (Duchefa, Haarlem, the Netherlands).
Growth chamber
Seedlings were cultured for four days in a growth chamber under long-day conditions (day/night cycle of 16/8 h, 22 °C/18 °C, light intensity of 108 μmol·m−2·s−1).
