Figure 1: This is the full color version of the figure.(Left) Controls experiencing only the Earth's field. They show little or no stress response.
(Center) Plants placed in the center of the magnet for 2.3 hours, B = 18.9 T.
(Right) Plants magnetically levitated for 2.3 hours, B = 14.4 T and B(grad)B = 1708 T2 m-1.Although it is difficult to identify significant differences in the amounts of blue stain between the roots of the specimens experiencing high magnetic fields (center and right), there is more expression in the leaf tissue of the levitated plants (right), and both are clearly different than the control (left).
