An experimental system was developed to analyze effects of altered gravity conditions on the growth of seedlings avoiding artifactual deformation of organs which occurs due to bending moment during growth in the air under altered gravity treatments such as simulated microgravity and hypergravity. Arabidopsis seeds were sown in Gelrite containing Murashige-Skoog medium, vernalized, and treated with simulated microgravity using a three-dimensional clinostat or hypergravity at 300 G using a centrifuge for two to four days in the dark. The effects of these altered-gravity conditions on the growth of hypocotyls and roots were analyzed by obtaining two-dimensional projected images.
