Molecular characterization and effect of drought stress on soil-grown p35S :: OsADF3 transgenic Arabidopsis plants. (A) RT-PCR analysis of OsAD3 mRNA expression in transgenic and wild-type plants. The HPT (hygromycin) marker was used for selection of homozygous plants. (B) For drought-stress tolerance assay, 3-week-old wild type and transgenic plants were grown in standard soil condition, then water was withheld for 12 days and plants were re-watered for 5 days. Photographs correspond to plants at day 5 and 8 of water deficit ((a), transgenic lines L1 and L3), recovery of water stress treatment for 5 days ((a) and (b), lines L1, L3, L8 and L9).
